The Ministry of Stories was founded by Nick Hornby and co-directors Lucy Macnab and Ben Payne; their aim is to encourage young people to get involved with creative writing, in the hope that writing will inspire them to transform their lives. Based in Hoxton, North London, The Ministry of Stories provides a free space for fresh writing by young people, it also provides workshops and one-to-one mentoring delivered by volunteers in the form of local writers, artists and teachers, who all give their time and talent for free.
Not only does the Ministry of Stories provide young people with the tools to be creative but it also supports them to improve language skills, increase abilities in communication, and increase social and educational confidence.
