The Partner-Finding Tool
Literature is formed from emotion, and can positively impact a persons wellbeing.
Writing is a core skill that many of us use on a daily basis, but we forget just how valuable it is. Shown to improve physical, mental and social wellbeing, literature and writing are forces for great things, and that's what we want to help young people to discover in this exchange.
They will be taken to discover historic and cultural figures, putting words into context. They'll learn new writing techniques and ways to communicate. They'll be able to quieten their own inner critic, and explore new ideas that will lead to bigger things. Guided writing activities and projects are designed to foster personal growth and wellbeing, whilst trips and visits will expand appreciation of the literary world.
During the exchange we encourage participants to have reflection periods of their own wellbeing and development.
The final result of the project will include a creation of a PDF book that can be published.
We are searching for sending organisations and youth groups, especially those who include people with fewer opportunities, that have a passion for creativity and personal growth, and want to improve their confidence and self development skills.
