Entries for the annual Mayor's Writing Competition are now open

Each year, young authors between 5 and 18 can submit an original work in any style of creative writing.

Find out more information or how to enter on the Mayor's Writing Competition page. 

Again this year, to encourage creative and original work, there is no set theme, which gives entrants the freedom to write about any topic of their choosing. We encourage the addition of drawings and illustrations to complement these creative works.
