About WRAP

WRAP stands for Writing, Reading and Pleasure. It’s a place to explore and enjoy words.

WRAP is a programme of book clubs, writing workshops, mentoring and events open to all NTU students, free, gratis, and at no charge to you while you are a student in Nottingham UNESCO City of Literature. Co-produced with WRAP student ambassadors, WRAP is about loving words, listening to new voices, reading for pleasure and having the freedom and confidence to speak out. Everyone is welcome to read and write along.

If your idea of bliss is a brand new unthumbed sweet-smelling paperback, you’ll find people at our Book Club who know what you’re talking about; you’ll have the chance to share your favourite titles and maybe even find some new favourites. And WRAP is a home for all students who want to try taking their pen for a walk – through poems and prose, non-fiction and scripts. No experience is needed and all students are welcome.

Every term we work with published authors, who call in to inspire us at writing workshops, masterclasses and our Open Mic. WRAP is a great opportunity to meet new friends, explore books and experiment with writing. There is plenty to get involved in: check out the full range and book your place here.
