The Reclaim Collective exists to creatively enrich communities, primary through creative writing enrichment. During the 2022-2023 financial year, the Reclaim Collective has offered various poetry workshops, both virtual and in person for free to members on the community, inviting working poets and writers to lead lectures on how to better your writing, in service of those interested in engaging with the writing community as a career or simply for leisure. We have had many achievements over the past year but two underpin our work. The first is being invited to the Black British Book Festival in Southbank Centre in October to share the work of our first poetry anthology which was a collation of poetry from university students in Warwick on the black experience. Sharing the process and inception of that novel at this event was a great opportunity which allowed us to meet and answer questions of many black writers interested in enhancing their writing or entering the self-publishing world. The second achievement was the launch and publication of our second anthology which compiled the experience of various young people on the theme of growing and becoming. Both writers of the anthology and attendees were enriched by the chance to hear spoken poetry and creatively network.
The company’s stakeholders are the people of the local community of the Coventry area, where we started, and those that engage with our content and attend out events, an intimate and primarily virtual community. Annual self-publication was integral to our operation as a community interest company as it gives poets a tangible book of their work they can leverage and we wanted to hold another self-publication for the 2024 year. However, following feedback from stakeholders, it was clear the desire was for more virtual and in person events, similar to our launch events which offer the chance of creative enrichment. In response to this, we cancelled the upcoming 2024 anthology and directed our efforts towards planning more events that would creatively enrich our community, which has been met with positive response from stakeholders.
