Reading, reflection and literary events are even more important with COVID-19 changing our world.

We’ve made the decision to go ahead with the festival in September, face to face if we can and online. The health and safety of our writers and audiences are our first priority.  We’ll make the decision to include in person interviews or to be entirely virtual closer to the date, in line with government advice.  We are presenting a series of events throughout the year. Details of our events are below.

(Virtual) Talks by Women Writers

​​In association with The Women's Club, the Rose Scott Women Writers' Festival presents a series of talks by women writers throughout the year. Since we can’t meet in person, we will be meeting virtually until social distancing is itself distant.
