One Giant Read, a digital project to encourage interest in exploring science, technology and medicine (STM) subjects through the medium of science fiction. Funded by the UK Space Agency, the European Space Agency.
Key Strengths

Seeking Partnerships With
Where funding is available:
National or specialist libraries across the world
Galleries and museums with an interest in literary heritage
Literature development agencies or ‘Houses’ across the world
Purpose of Partnerships
Writer exchanges or residencies– for example:
In 2020 the city of Plymouth (where we are based) will commemorate 400 years since the Mayflower sailed to America; a large cultural programme is planned to celebrate this. We for our part should like to partner with a US-based organisation to achieve a productive anglo-american literary exchange, funding permitting.
