Do you have a story to tell? Would you like to do something creative? Maybe you have a creative idea you’d like to make happen, or you’re already doing things and are looking for your next step?

If you are based in Benwell or Scotswood, then come along to the West End Writes community drop-in at St James Church, Benwell. Join us for a cup of tea, a biscuit, and a friendly chat with our creative producer Dani, who is on hand to listen to your ideas and to help make things happen. No previous experience is necessary and everyone is welcome.

If you have any questions or would like to know more about the work we are developing in the West End, please email our West End Writes producer at [email protected]

St James' Benwell

Welcome! St James’ is your Church of England church in the heart of Benwell. St James was built in 1833 and has been serving the West-end of Newcastle ever since. We believe that Jesus calls us to keep two commandments – to love God and to love our neighbour as ourselves. We hope that this love informs everything we do.

Also... Something Wonderful is happening in Benwell!

Something Wonderful is a project based at St James Church Benwell that aims to strengthen the local community, whatever their background or belief. We have named it ‘Something Wonderful’ as we want to do just that – continue to be a place run by and for the community where you can encounter/eat/learn/create/do/be something wonderful.
