Welcome to Swansea and District Writers' Circle
SDWC is all about promoting the art of writing. Set up in 1954, we’re still going strong and we love to welcome new members.
Everyone is welcome to our main monthly meeting in Swansea, held in conjunction with Taliesin Arts Centre, where we invite guests to talk about writing and publishing. Usually there is a Zoom link for those who can’t attend. We also have an informal Feedback Group, Poetry Group and Scriptwriting Group, where members share their writing and provide each other with encouragement and support. From time to time we hold competitions and other events, and publish anthologies of our work Find out more about us
