Do you WORRY that your child will never be able to write properly and how this might affect their future?

Join the Get Set Write club - your child will be part of the ONLY one run by an occupational therapist that sends out a monthly resource box.

For 11 to 16 year olds

Do you STRUGGLE to know what your child has written? (And suspect their teachers can't properly mark it?)
Do you secretly KNOW they cannot write fast enough and fear it will impact their GCSE grades?
Do you want to find a way to IMPROVE your child’s handwriting without it zapping their inner soul and self confidence?
Are you ready to make their school life easier by letting an expert give them the GIFT of easy to read handwriting?

What happens in the Get Set Write Club?

Join us twice a month – every 1st and 3rd Wednesday at 9.00 am or 7pm.

In these live group lessons, teens learn new techniques for neater, faster writing that actually work. Lessons aren’t recorded, creating a comfortable space for questions and real-time support.

Posted ready for the start of each month. Your child’s club box includes:

  • Next month’s daily practice workbook
  • Subject-specific writing worksheets – different one every month
  • A mystery pen (chosen for grip, shape or ink type)
  • A challenge card to test out their new pen
  • An emotional wellbeing gift – because writing success is about confidence too! (Previous gifts include gaming door signs and decision-making coins)

Every Friday, I select and review different students’ work in a 15-25 minute video:

  • Up to 10 anonymous pieces of work is featured each week
  • Everyone learns from seeing different writing styles and improvements
  • Watch how I analyse and suggest changes that help all writers
  • Videos emailed directly to you – watch anytime!

Why Your Child Will Love the Handwriting Club

1. Expert OT handwriting guidance

2. Writing activities designed for teens, not kids 

3. Fits around busy schedules and is fun to do

4. No need to supply anything. Every month a new box of resources is posted directly to you.

  • Everything you need arrives at your door – no hunting for supplies.
  • Watch writing speed and neatness improve together.
  • No battles – they manage their own progress.
  • No more parent/teacher evenings where handwriting is mentioned yet again.
  • Two 30-minute group sessions each month.
  • No boring repetition – each day brings something new.
  • Learn alongside others who get it (staying completely anonymous).
  • No pressure, no comparisons – just progress at their own pace.
  • Teachers will start positively commenting on their handwriting.

"Your support truly makes a difference, and we’re so grateful for the time and effort you put into making the Handwriting Club such a positive experience."

Tanya, Mum of Daniel, age 13.

Hi, I'm Sheilagh, and my superpower is helping 11-16 year olds feel good about their handwriting again.

As an OT, I saw nothing for older students, so I created the Get Set Write Club. It’s not just a workbook. Students get monthly handwriting boxes (who doesn’t love receiving a surprise in the post?). Live group lessons and weekly video feedback on work.

I wanted to help students learn, improve, and think about their writing. I also wanted them to have fun.

No, not if you are in the UK and the Channel Islands. Shipping is free.

All boxes are sent by the Royal Mail and are tracked. The cost of shipping varies depending on where you live. It is automatically worked out when you type in your address.  

To give you an estimate per box, see below:

Did you know you can buy our club membership in your currency? When you go to the checkout, click on your countries currency and it will magically change the amount, saving you from finding an online currency converter.

International deliveries may be subject to import duties and taxes which are calculated once the order has reached its destination country. Please note you are liable for these costs.

All boxes are shipped ready to start on the 1st of the next month. 

  • If you are outside the UK, your box will be shipped on the 20th of the month. Cut off date for that box is the 16th.
  • If you are in the UK and Channel Islands your boxes will go out on the 25th of the month. Cut off date for that  box is the 21st. (In December, current members boxes will be shipped earlier due to the Christmas post).

Every box is tracked and sent out using Royal Mail. 

If you join on 21st, 22nd, 23rd, 24th of the month, your next month’s payment date will be moved to the 21st. That way we know how many boxes need shipping the next month. 

Welcome, we’d love to have you with us. We have a number of international Get Set Writers. There are group lessons set at different timezones so that your child can join in them too. 

At the moment all lessons take place on the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of the month. They start at 9am and 7pm UK time. 

If you live in Australia, you might be interested to know we’ve have had parents use their child’s NDIS benefit to pay for the club. These parents said the club was OT support under the category of Capacity Building – Improved Daily Living.

You can cancel at any time. Access to the club and all its contents (group lessons, feedback on work, monthly resource box) will continue until the end of your payment period. 

3 days before any renewal, you’ll receive an email reminder. You’ll never be charged without any notice.

If you are a new member and are unhappy with the club, there is a 14 day guarantee. Contact us and we will refund you your membership fee. 

If you are an existing member and the membership renews when you wanted to cancel, contact us. Any refunds will incur a 6% admin fee.

In both incidences, access to the membership will cease immediately when teh refund has been issued.

Immediately, this is because you/your child will receive instant resources.

You’ll get 21 day PDF worksheet to download and start writing. This work can be submitted for the weekly reviews. You’re welcome to attend the next group lesson. The monthly resource box will arrive ready to start on the 1st of the month. 

We occasionally run offers. To claim your discount, add the promotional code in the checkout. 

Absolutely. Some of our Get Set Writers are home educated (or home schooled if you are using the American term). The club can be used at anytime and anywhere.

Everyone finds it super useful. Not only do they learn how to improve their writing but they feel reassured they are not the only one in the world that finds handwriting tricky at their age.

We do run a school version of the Get Set Club, where the club resources, the lessons and feedback on submitted work is provided by Sheilagh (OT) to your students. 

Alternatively, you can bulk buy the handwriting practice workbook by arrangement. 

For both options email us at support@helpwithhandwriting.co.uk

Yes, we have had parents use this benefit to pay for the club. This is something that you would need to apply for yourself. These parents have placed this OT support under the category of Capacity Building – Improved Daily Living.

That’s ok we’ve got that sorted for you too.

There are 2 types of lessons that you can add on to the club. Most people add a 30 minute ‘handwriting lesson’ at the beginning of joining the club because they want their child to have 1:1 advice to kick start the progress. Once their child has been in the club for a bit, some parents, choose the ‘Goal Setting and Review’ lesson for further 1:1 30 minute support.

Both can be added at any point by going to your unique club login dashboard. 

Being good at handwriting doesn't just happen, it's down to practice and great advice.
