As part of this year's festival Spread the Word is coordinating creative writing workshops for adults and children in Greenwich, Hackney, Tower Hamlets and Waltham Forest.

"Arts Council England has been pleased to support the growth of Spread the Word, enabling the organisation to work in boroughs in West and now East London. Through its pioneering writer and reader development work, Spread the Word is now ideally placed to make lasting changes at a community level across many areas of London, and can play an important part in seeing that the arts - and literature in particular - are at the heart of the Thames Gateway development."
