02 Activities

What the charity does

Little Green Pig offers accessible opportunities to seven to 18-year olds who are living in areas of high deprivation or facing challenging circumstances. We run free creative writing projects across Sussex which give young people the space and time to write for pleasure and purpose. We believe that writing can positively change lives by building confidence, communication and literacy skills.
