Future Writers' Labs

This course is now sold out. When applying, please select either October 2017 or February 2018.

It’s time for the next generation of great British copywriters to emerge, ready to shape the future.

Sign up to the Future Writers’ Labs and you’ll experiment every week with your craft, under the expert guidance of Debi Bester.

Debi is the course leader and writer in residence at the DMA. She boasts more than 110 awards for creativity and innovation, and has judged both the DMA Awards and Cannes Lions. She brings an unorthodox, fun and fast approach to learning: this isn’t a lecture-hall.

To help you get the most out of your Writers’ Labs course, Debi is joined by special guest tutors. We have previously welcomed Patrick Collister, Creative Lead in The ZOO EMEA for Google, Beri Cheetham, ECD, The Gate Worldwide and Rupert Tebb, a freelance service designer with a passion for creating behaviour changing customer experiences.

Throughout the course be prepared to write on the spot (gulp); tear apart copy word-by-word with the experts; discover how an onion, popping candy and play-doh can rejuvenate your sentences; and embark on an experiential journey to short copy utopia.

This course will push you way beyond your comfort zone and bring you all the way back again as a totally new writer.

We welcome writers of all shapes and all sizes so you’ll learn next to agency folk, clientside copywriters and freelancers.

Apply now and start a revolution.

This course will run every Tuesday evening between Tuesday 16 May - Tuesday 2 June 2017 (This includes a one week break).
