About our Work

At the Young Muslim Writers Awards we work towards raising the standards of child literacy and creative writing. We want to enable young people to be confident communicators to help build a vibrant society.

Since 2006 we have been working with 5 – 16 years olds across the UK both directly and through schools, libraries and community organisations. We strive toward nurturing their imagination and creative skills by organising writing workshops and holding an annual writing competition.

If you are a young person and are interested in writing, enter our competitions and get in touch if you’d like us to hold a writing workshop in your area.

We rely on your support. If you work with young people, are in the creative industries, work for a business or are simply keen to help develop the future of young people, we’d love for you to contact us. Work with us and help reshape the narrative for ourselves and for the generations to come.
