Come and join us in-person at the SCBWI British Isles conference in Manchester! Children’s book creators at all levels will find unique opportunities to meet and network with industry professionals and fellow creatives at our vibrant in-person event. Our theme ‘In Search of Wonder’ invites you to recharge your imaginations, re-engage with your creativity, connect, and leave empowered with a new sense of optimism and community. Once again, we are offering six full scholarships, awarded to authors and illustrators in need and from traditionally underrepresented backgrounds. NOTE: this event is NOT free. You MUST book and pay for a ticket.
