Set up in 1959, the WGGB represents writers working in film, theatre, television, radio, literature, poetry and multimedia.
This trade union helps ensure writers´ rights are respected and strives to improve their working conditions. Moreover, the Guild offers advice to all its members in varying aspects: legal advice, copyright problems and legal representation…
Any writer who has received payment for a piece of work is entitled to join the Writer´s Guild of Britain. If a writer does not match these terms, he or she can become a candidate member. There are also student memberships for those who are undertaking writing courses, and free life membership for senior writers who have served in the Guild.
