Fighting Words unleashes the creative potential of young people by providing free tutoring and mentoring in creative writing and related arts. Fighting Words was established to address the absence of outlets for children and young adults in Dublin to engage with creative writing, and the lack of space for creative writing in the school curriculum.
Fighting Words hosts workshops for primary school kids, secondary school kids and adults with special needs. They host a wide range of special projects and programmes for children and teenagers at weekends, midterm breaks and summer holidays. These can be focused on graphic fiction, scriptwriting/film-making, songwriting, playwriting, journalism, media, radio drama, memoir…. School workshops run for 2 hours, and a typical class of 25/30 students would have a team of ten volunteer tutors, allowing 1-3 support. As much of the creative material as possible is published, either digitally or in hardcopy.
