Welcome to the Fed

TheFED is an umbrella organisation for community writing and publishing groups 

 

 

  • The FED promotes skill-sharing and encourages our members to support and help each other.
  •  TheFED aims to encourage and promote writing done by ordinary everyday people, and people who may struggle to get their ideas down on paper.
  •  TheFED values difference and welcomes people who lack confidence in themselves and their writing ability.
  •  TheFED is run entirely voluntarily, by the members and for the members. We have no funding, no office and no paid workers.
  •  TheFED welcomes people of all backgrounds and abilities. Our MiniFests are accessible and friendly. We try to cater for people's special needs as far as we possibly can. For example:
  •  We offer 'writing hands' to help those who find it difficult to write down what they want to say.  We make sure that the venues we use have good disabled access.
