Liverpool’s new Stories in Song program is a hit—songwriting workshops for 18-25 year olds packed every Tuesday at the Central Library, fueled by Arts Council England funding. Founder Georgie Weston built it to fill a gap left by shrinking school arts programs, offering a creative, inclusive space where even beginners can learn structure, chords, and rhyme while connecting with peers. With monthly cohorts of 12, it’s empowering young voices—and Georgie’s eyes are already on expanding it citywide and beyond.
