18+ with Fenland roots or a real connection to Fenland? Start with your name and email. No portfolio, equipment or finished story idea is needed.

Start with your name and email. You do not need a finished story, portfolio or long application now. We will send a secure link so you can add the fuller details afterwards.
What you are joining
Find, shape, make and refine your story across four principal Saturdays. This is the core attendance commitment.
Writing, audio, photography, film, visual work or a mixture. You do not need to decide before you start.
Choose none, one or two Open Doors experiences if they would genuinely help your work. They are never compulsory.
Individual help, equipment where needed, reasonable local travel costs, lunch and refreshments.
Access
Written information, captions, communication support, a quieter setup, travel or mobility needs and other adjustments can be discussed around individual need. We ask rather than assume.
Your choice
Filming, public sharing, your name and how your work appears are separate choices. You can take part without agreeing to public publication.
Already started?
If you already have your secure link, you can return to the application and continue where you left off.
Current funded programme
The current 16-person Digital Storytelling Lab is supported through Arts Council England National Lottery Project Grants. Common Ground is the wider place-based storytelling platform around that funded spine.
