Thanet Writers is a community-driven non-profit social enterprise which works to support writers in Thanet or who have a link to the area, publish writing with artistic or educational merit, and promote literature, creativity and culture. The organisation itself is a Community Interest Company and is run by a Board of Directors.

The Directors manage the organisation as a whole, deciding on the directions Thanet Writers takes and managing all staff.

Hannah Eden

Hannah has a background in management and retail, and brings a people-focus to her role. She actively promotes the mental health benefits of writing and personal creative expression, as well as the positives of being part of a writing community.

As a mother and a writer, Hannah has a strong drive to support and empower those around her whilst encouraging others to improve. Along with writing she works in education and is eager to help highlight and nurture the creative talents of Thanet.

Hannah oversees the publishing side of Thanet Writers, including the Editorial Team, the creation and publication of anthologies, and publication of Thanet-linked writers, authors and poets on thanetwriters.com

David Rowden

David has been working in Thanet’s charitable sector for several years and brings with him a wealth of experience in grant applications, administration, budgeting and accounting, community innovation, and managing staff and volunteers.

As a writer himself, David is passionate about supporting the local writers of Thanet to reach their full potential. He aims to encourage all writers and creatives to develop their own skills and talents whilst staying true to their personal beliefs.

David manages the financial side of Thanet Writers, ensuring the organisation generates income outside of funded bids, as well as writing and applying for grants, fundraising, and managing the accounts.
