Stratford Lit Fest needs your help

This is a very challenging time for everyone, and the cancellation of the 2020 Literary Festival events has been a huge blow. It will have an enormous impact on the money we would normally raise through ticket sales and donations that supports the Festival and its work.

It will have a particular impact on our outreach work in the community. This includes our projects with older people, with schools in the region, and the workshops we do in prisons at which we teach prisoners to write bedtime stories for their children. These help encourage critical family bonding, help reduce the trauma of a parent's absence for a child, and help discourage re-offending. Find out more here . 

We know many people have financial challenges at the moment, but if you felt able to support the Festival's work, and help us deliver important projects, we would be enormously grateful.
