How to support our work

You can donate to Untold Narratives CIC in two ways; either direct to our UK bank account (please contact our Finance and Operations Coordinator, Mark Osman-Barter at admin@untold-narratives.org) or if you prefer to give via a UK/ US registered charity, rather than a CIC, please go via our partner Prospero World (UK Charity Number: 1163952). 

Untold Narratives CIC is a development programme for writers who are structurally marginalised by community or conflict. Every writer’s situation is different, which means their needs are too. For many creative writers, with ambition, the future is uncertain and frightening. For many – their gender, their voice, their talent – is under threat.

However large or small, your donation will give a writer on one of our projects the encouragement to keep writing and stay connected to others. For example, £100 could go towards internet data costs to enable a writer to stay connected to others and attend Untold’s workshops for three months; £350 could fund a literary translator to bring a writer’s short story to a wider global audience; £500 connects a writer from our community to an experienced literary editor/mentor; £2,500 supports a three-month editorial process with a writer – translating and editing their work, holding one-to-one editorial sessions, and developing their story for potential commission and publication.

Larger amounts enable us to work with local partners to develop and deliver projects where writers are structurally marginalised and where there is little or no creative infrastructure through which they can develop their work.
