UCL East

Delivered by UCL experts and creative professionals, this fun and inclusive Saturday Club will give you the chance to try out a wide range of forms of written and spoken expression. You’ll learn how to think creatively, work with others and express ideas through words, sounds, performance and more.
Try your hand at creative writing, journalism or debating. Learn about the language of the law, express yourself in poetry and performance and get inspired by writing and speech from different times and places.
The Club is held at UCL’s Marshgate building on the Olympic Park in Stratford, London. You’ll get to experience our campus at your sessions and gain insights into some of the ways in which writing and talking are studied at the University.
</p><p>This Club is open to 13–16-year-olds (as of September 2025), who live or go to school in Hackney, Newham, Tower Hamlets and Waltham Forest.
