Saturday Afternoon 'Scribblers' Writers' Group at Urmston Library

Got a story to tell, a poem taking shape, or a brilliant idea that just won’t leave you alone? Join this 'Scribblers' Writers' Group at Urmston Library!

Whether you’re an experienced writer, returning to writing after a break, or have always fancied putting pen to paper, this writers’ group is a friendly and welcoming place to get creative. Share ideas, explore different styles of writing and find inspiration alongside other local writers. It’s a chance to develop your skills, build confidence and perhaps finally get started on that story, poem or novel that’s been lurking at the back of your mind.

It's completely free and there is no need to sign up or book a place – just come along and join in.
