Applications are now open for the 2025 Mothers Write program, a songwriting camp specifically designed for songwriters who are mothers to enhance their skills.

Empowering women in the music industry

Mothers Write was created in collaboration with We Are The Unheard and Girl Grind UK, two organisations dedicated to empowering women in the music industry.

The program is also supported by Levi’s Store and funded by The Ivors Academy Trust to ensure that mum-songwriters receive the resources, opportunities, and recognition they deserve.

It is the UK’s first songwriting camp specifically tailored for mothers in music, offering a unique platform for them to foster collaboration, networking, and mentorship while navigating their careers in the music industry.

Apply by 31 January 2025

Successful applicants will take part in interactive workshops led by industry experts, mentorship opportunities, and have access to essential resources, all designed to foster creativity and enhance participants’ skills.

The deadline for applications is Friday 31 January.
