This project will generate new creative writings from north Staffordshire. Rooted in the occupational-health legacy of the past this network will bring together residents, employees, and patients with poets and novelists on one hand, and medical practitioners and policy makers on the other, to reflect on experiences of health, illness and medicine in the region. Through creative writing it is envisaged that participants will come to terms with their health experiences. This will be achieved by a series of workshops to be held in community, health and academic locations, featuring at least one guest writer at each event. Discussions, activities and readings will draw on personal experience and local knowledge to produce a series of writings from lay, creative and academic perspectives. Using an approach which places participants at the centre of the activity will ensure that the detail of the creative work produced will be driven by the community and our partners, rather than imposed by academics, and create a sense of worth and achievement which can be built upon in the future. The narratives generated by participants will provide a rich source of qualitative data for sociologists, historians and health experts to explore, analyse and interpret.The long-term aim of the network will be to secure funding for a peripatetic writer in residence (to be attached to one of the partner organisations ideally to the NHS in north Staffordshire) with a view to establishing a permanent published and performance legacy for the project such as a play, short stories, or other creative output. The creative writer will be based in the community, accessible and responsive to local residents. The creative writer will facilitate encounters between practitioners and community to achieve significant creative output.

这个项目将产生新的创造性的作品从北斯塔福德郡。该网络植根于过去的职业健康遗产，一方面将居民、员工和患者与诗人和小说家聚集在一起，另一方面将医疗从业者和政策制定者聚集在一起，反思该地区的健康、疾病和医学经验。通过创造性的写作，预计参与者将接受他们的健康经历。这将通过在社区、卫生和学术场所举办一系列讲习班来实现，每次活动至少有一名客座作家。讨论，活动和阅读将利用个人经验和当地知识，从外行，创造性和学术角度产生一系列的作品。采用将参与者置于活动中心的方法，将确保所产生的创造性工作的细节将由社区和我们的合作伙伴推动，而不是由学术界强加，并创造一种可以在未来建立的价值感和成就感。参与者所产生的叙述将为社会学家、历史学家和健康专家提供丰富的定性数据来源，该网络的长期目标将是为一位常驻的巡回作家提供资金（附在一个合作伙伴组织，最好是北斯塔福德郡的NHS）以期为该项目建立一个永久的出版和表演遗产，如戏剧、短篇小说或其他创造性的产出。创意作家将以社区为基础，方便当地居民的访问和响应。创造性的作家将促进从业者和社区之间的接触，以实现显着的创造性产出。
