Project management and consultancy

How does it work?
We work with libraries, schools, arts organisations and commercial companies, providing training and support as well as helping them establish suitable net-based writing projects. Very often, a day's consultancy is all that's required to explore the possibilities the web has to offer writers. We can support organisations as they set up and manage their own schemes, or provide a fully-customised project management service.

We can also help with grant applications. trAce has made successful applications to, amongst others, the Arts for Everyone Fund administered by the Arts Council of England; the Year of the Artist; the European Culture 2000 scheme, the AHRB, NESTA, and regional agencies like East Midlands Arts.

And we don't just work with writers. Our skills as online community hosts are increasingly valuable to companies wishing to establish an interactive web presence. We can advise on ways to make your website a place that users want to revisit on a regular basis.

We also design, build and host websites and message boards for individuals and organisations.

To discuss ways in which net-based writing projects, training and community might bring added value to your existing activities, please contact Sue Thomas on +44 (0)115 8483551 or email sue.thomas@ntu.ac.uk.
