Hi Yasmine,

We do run an annual Writing Non-Fiction course, which might be of interest to you! It's just wrapped up for this year, but we should hopefully be doing it again so do keep your eyes peeled next year for further announcements.

In terms of competitions and grants for non-fiction, I'd suggest checking out the following:

DYCP - Developing Your Creative Practice: https://www.artscouncil.org.uk/dycp
Whiting Creative Non-Fiction Grant: https://www.whiting.org/writers/creative-nonfiction-grant

https://rsliterature.org/library-article/where-writers-can-find-support…

There's also a useful list of competitions here: https://mistakeswritersmake.com/competitions/

Finally, we will be sharing a page soon that shares all of the opportunities for underrepresented writers as featured in the Yearbook. This includes grants, schemes, prizes and open submissions. We'll announce this in our newsletter, so make sure you're signed up to get all of the info :)
