Flying into its eighth incredible year, the "prestigious Wicked Young Writer Awards" (The Times) was established in order to link the important messages of Wicked with a competition that would inspire young people to use their writing to look at life a little differently.
The Awards, including the FOR GOOD: Award for Non-Fiction, recognise excellence in writing, encourage creativity, and help develop writing talent in young people between 5-25 years old from all backgrounds and areas of the UK & Ireland.
HRH The Duchess of Cornwall continues to be our Patron for the seventh year, as does Michael Morpurgo as our Honorary Judge. Cressida Cowell currently sits as our Head Judge. We are partnered with the National Literacy Trust.
Each Halloween, Wicked is proud to support The Woodland Trust, as part of our annual Wicked Day, by fundraising for trees to be planted in the creation of new woodland space across the UK. Through bucket collections, activity days, social support and auctions, Wicked continues to help promote the importance of 'going green'.
The Anti-Bullying Alliance (ABA), hosted by the National Children's Bureau, is a coalition of organisations and individuals committed to a shared vision to stop bullying and create safe environments in which children and young people can live, grow, play and learn.
The Anti-Bullying Alliance is delighted to work in partnership with Wicked For Good. The show provides a unique opportunity to explore issues relating to difference, respect and friendship in a safe and creative space.
