This is an anthology taken from work that was produced by the Hangleton and Brighton Women Writers’ groups. The Hangleton group started meeting in July 1988 as part of the Hangleton and Knoll Community Festival. The aim of the programme was to introduce new writers and audiences to creative writing, to explore the central concerns and themes that impact on women’s lives and to draw on their life experiences. For many women, it was the first time that they were able to see their work in print, and this was a positive and uplifting experience for them.
