Grimm & Co is a registered charity and our core purpose is to change lives one story at a time. We support under-resourced children and young people aged 0 to 18 with their confidence and skills around creativity and writing.

We introduce children, young people and families to discover creativity and imagination through artists, one-to-one mentoring and exciting projects which spark motivation to write. We know that strong writing skills and an ability to imagine beyond what we experience are fundamental to future success. We also believe it is important for young people to see a real reason to write so there is always an outcome from the activities we do.
