Super Power Agency
- VO101224
Super Power Agency is looking for editors, proofreaders, and typists to support young people's stories!
You do not have to be a published writer, just have lots of enthusiasm for creative writing and young people. Super Power Agency volunteers come from every walk of life. Some want to give back to their local community, others want to gain experience in publishing and some just want to help out!
This is a home based opportunity.
All of the work our young writers do is published into a book of some form.
If you’d like to be involved but find it difficult during typical school hours, then the Extraordinary League of Editors, Proofreaders, Helpers And Nifty Typists (E.L.E.P.H.A.N.T.) might be the editing collective for you! This is back-end remote volunteering, and is integral to publishing the young writers’ work.
The writing is split up into batches, each taking approximately one hour, and you are welcome to do as many or as few as your schedule allows!
About Super Power Agency
Founded in 2016, The Super Power Agency aims to improve the lives and literacy rates of some of Scotland's most under-resourced areas. Through a range of writing workshops, interdisciplinary creative programs and the help of community volunteers, we aim to empower children and young people (8-18 years) through literacy.
If you're interested, please click the ‘apply’ button below (available when logged in and registered). You will then be contacted by the coordinator by email or phone call.
