Each year, we sponsor an international short story competition run by local publisher Hammond House, which was launched by our students in 2016 and has since grown to be a local publisher, producer and more. The top prize for the international short story competition is £500 and the winners are published in an internationally published anthology, alongside our students and staff, with the book launch held at an annual literary festival. For more details, see the Hammond House Publishing website.
