As you know, Lapidus is run by a small band of volunteers who give many hundreds of hours of our time because we believe in writing for wellbeing. We want to bring people and communities together, to bring hope, challenge and enjoyment and to offer opportunities for self-development and healing through writing and words.

Historically, our major challenge has been lack of money to do all that we want to do for our membership and expand our services. And this is why we are raising our subscription fees from April 2021 to £55 per year. The rise will only take place when you renew your membership for next year.

Throughout 2020, we were able to keep spirits up during the pandemic by offering regular mini-festivals which were free and fun. We want to keep offering these events and a lot more this year and, in order to do this we need to raise more cash. This will enable us to grow and develop as an organisation and offer the following benefits to our members in 2021:

We hope you will support Lapidus as we grow as an organisation in order to support you better. For further information, contact This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
