Objectives

The organisation's charitable purposes are: 1. The advancement of arts through facilitating opportunities for young people and adults to become engaged with literature, poetry and creative writing, paying particular attention to supporting participation by people who due to financial circumstances, cultural background, and other intersectional forms of prejudice have been traditionally under-represented in arts and literary events and activities. The Wee Gaitherin will benefit the people of Stonehaven, North East Scotland, and also the wider poetry community throughout Scotland. And seeks to advocate for and facilitate the participation of people and communities in poetry and creative writing workshops, mentoring, readings, spoken word performance, inclusion in anthologies and exhibitions, thereby building confidence, enriching cultural life and community spirit and cohesion. 2. The advancement of culture by both preserving, celebrating, and generating traditional regional and newly assembling local cultures in Scotland through highlighting the vitality of Scottish and international poetry, and the diversity of languages-in-culture, including Scots, Gaelic, and more generally the variety of languages spoken and shared in contemporary Scotland, to new and receptive audiences across the Northeast region and beyond.
