zuntold

London

ZunTold is an independent publishing company, based in Manchester, focusing on publishing good fiction to support mental health and wellbeing. We publish Middle Grade and YA fiction and love working with established voices as well as debut authors. Our authors have been nominated for literary prizes, including the Carnegie Medal, and won prestigious awards too, like the Lancashire Book of the Year Award, chosen solely by young people aged 13-14 years of age. We work with agented authors but twice a year, (in June for YA and in December for Middle Grade) we open our doors to authors who do not have an agent. We do not publish picture books as we don’t have the expertise to do so. We publish in print, e-book and interactive books. We run a programme we call Fiction as Therapy. Our staff are publishing professionals, writers, editors, counsellors and psychotherapists who have also trained in Therapeutic Writing. Books are 'healers for the soul' and creative writing brings many health benefits. Our Fiction as Therapy service offers a therapeutic programme of bibliotherapy across different age audiences and creative writing for therapeutic purposes, for young people and adults looking to support their mental and physical health and wellbeing. There is a growing evidence base that therapeutic writing and bibliotherapy can support people with long term physical health conditions as well as improving mental health. We are building links with NHS Trusts and Social Care providing an online library and blended services of tailored support to individuals and communities.

oakfield house tuition

London

What we believe Oakfield House has gone from strength to strength since opening in 2012, yet we never lose sight of each student's individual progress. Above all, we are committed to helping our students as much as we can and believe that the child comes first. With the right attitude and effort, students of all abilities are capable of doing well. Preparation is key! 11+ preparation is best started in year 4 and GCSE preparation should start in year 8/9. Starting later than this causes unnecessary stress and not enough exam practice. How we teach Although we do like to incorporate interactive devices to bring a subject to life, we generally take a traditional approach to teaching. Homework and short tests are set weekly to ensure that material is both understood and learnt. This means that we can identify problem areas fairly quickly.

human story

London

HUMAN is a storytelling and strategy agency that creates media for social impact. We work with an array of public and private-sector companies, nonprofit and intergovernmental organizations to design objective-driven stories that come to life through branding, video, and digital media. Whether we are helping brands redefine their corporate social responsibility platform or creating original documentary content for a nonprofit, HUMAN helps an array of organizations strengthen their commitment to elevating humanity. We are Emmy nominated experts in how to use media to achieve objectives beyond awareness. Our researchers and strategists think across sectors to harness potential and direct that energy to create specific change and then layer story on top of the data. HUMAN carefully balances advocacy goals, scientific innovation, the best of media and storytelling combined with an authentic artistic voice to make nonpareil media for impact. What We Believe Δ is core to being human. The Greek letter Delta (δέλτα) is a symbol used to denote change. As humans, we are constantly evolving. When we change, we change the world around us. The opportunity to improve the human condition through storytelling inspires us to create and innovate. Change is our ethos. Human emotions are created by our experiences. These emotions are the primary influence of the choices we make. Collectively, these choices determine how humans behave which then affects the experience of other human beings. Stories allow other’s to step into the world of another. Storytelling has the power to inspire us to be our best and disrupt cycles of violence by challenging the narratives of fear. Stories allow us to feel the emotion of our own experience and the experience of others which develops deeper empathy and understanding.

handmade workshops ltd

Teddington

Although we met in a Spanish class years ago, we quickly discovered that as well as sharing a love of language learning, we were both mad crafters! The idea of setting up Handmade Workshops came about, as many things do, over a coffee one morning. Living in an area teeming with amazing artists and craft experts, we wanted to create a space to bring them together and give us all the opportunity to learn from their expertise, whilst at the same time having some fun and escape from daily life. And so Handmade Workshops was born! If you fancy trying out one of our workshops, have a look at our upcoming events – we’d love to see you there! And if you can’t find a workshop you are particularly looking for, please do get in touch and suggest it, we love hearing about new ideas and suggestions for future workshops and potential teachers.
