SCBWI England Midlands and East Anglia
Welcome to SCBWI England Midlands and East Anglia!
From Shropshire to Suffolk, and from Lincolnshire to Lakeside Shopping Centre, our region has produced such cultural icons as Robin Hood, Oliver Cromwell, and literature's king himself, Shakespeare.
With such heritage, though, it's little wonder that our region has inspired such children's classics as 'Peter Pan', 'Tom's Midnight Garden', and 'Isadora Moon', as well as YA hits including 'Bang Bang You're Dead', '(Un)arranged Marriage', and 'Alex in Wonderland'.
And now maybe... yours?
The England Midlands & East Anglia Regional Team is excited to be working with partner organisations from across the region to bring you inspiring events, motivating competitions, and stimulating opportunities to connect with creatives and enablers. Keep checking this site – or, better still, make sure you receive our newsletter!

We're looking for an Assistant Regional Adviser (any SCBWI member in our region) and a Writer Coordinator to help us sculpture our events and manage our communications. Generally they're not huge jobs – roughly an hour a week each – though around events, either/both roles may become a little more involved. The bonuses? Your SCBWI membership is paid for, you receive travel stipends to events you're supporting, and more! Email [email protected] to register your interest.
Are you a translator?
We are particularly keen to hear from translators in our region – we're sure we must have at least 10! Get in touch at [email protected] to let us know.
