We loved hearing from #WritingBack #penpal, David Smith, a trustee @CrossGatesGNS, who was inspired by his international, student penpal to write an article for @TTSLeeds's magazine: fliphtml5.com/hzcqx/siax. @LeedsGloCo #Endloneliness #Snailmail

Our #WritingBack #penpals have enjoyed writing to one another again during 2019-20, with 50 returning older pen pals paired with 47 students. Particularly during COVID, putting pen to paper is a great way to still maintain contact✍️✉️. Find out more here: writingback.co.uk.

I treasured the letters my grandmother would send to me when I was a young girl... Continuing the tradition with my granddaughters! #letterwriting #grandma


As students begin arriving & returning to @UniversityLeeds, they'll once again be putting pen to paper & writing to older members of the community. Many of the intergenerational #penpals continue to stay in touch after graduating, leading to lifelong friendships. @LeedsGloCo

We were delighted to hear that one of our @LeedsGloCo #penpals recently visited @CrossGatesGNS with a friend to meet her older pen pal & their members. Her older penpal said: It was a delightful time: the two Chinese girls mixed very easily and got on really well with everybody.

Sounds good - a similar "pen pal" idea (letter writing) in Leeds is run by @writing_back 😀

How wonderful. We are hoping to encourage poetry swaps between children and residents from care homes as part of our Only Connect Pen Pals project. Find out more here bit.ly/2ZRxofT #onlyconnect #artsincarehomes #creativecommunities

Its wonderful to see school children enjoying the joy of writing and receiving a letter. A really interesting project to instigate amongst an age group who almost never write a #letter these days #cursive #analogue #writealetter #snailmail 💌🐌 tes.com/news/schools-l…

After 8 years at @UniversityLeeds & 5 years running @writing_back, I'll be leaving Leeds on Friday for a new role in the Operations team at the Manchester Cancer Research Centre. #WritingBack has grown from 28 participants, inspired by my grandma's #letters to 180 volunteers (1).
