Improve handwriting without turning practice into a battle.
The busiest part of the school year is almost over. Together, we can use these final weeks of term to help your child build handwriting confidence and better writing habits.
So what exactly is the Get Set Write Club?
A monthly handwriting club where children receive new activities, expert feedback, group lessons and surprise rewards that keep them engaged while improving handwriting legibility and speed.
Why is July the perfect time to join?
"July is often the easiest month of the school year to finally tackle messy handwriting. Tests are ending. Homework is easing. Your child will finally have more time and headspace to focus on their handwriting."
Sheilagh, founder of Help with Handwriting
" Thank you for all your valuable help. Freddie now feels more competent and confident in his handwriting and is no longer using laptop support at school due to the improvement in his handwriting."
Ceri, Mum of Freddie, age 14.

A Few Of The Club Success Stories...
Parents love the Get Set Write Club
See what's possible with the right advice
Helping 11 to 14 years write neater, finish on time and with less stress. Getting them ready for their GCSE studies starting in Year 10.
Handwriting guidance from a real OT. Research – backed, never AI.
Hi and welcome
I’m a children’s occupational therapist and a handwriting expert. I created Get Set Write™ because there was nothing on the market for this age group. Everything was for younger children — and let’s face it, no teen in their right mind would want to do those worksheets!
I wanted something that would actually engage 11–14 year olds. Everything in the club focuses on small, steady changes that make writing feel easier — and confidence grow naturally.
I hope to see your child in the club soon.
Best wishes
Sheilagh
"I hear it all the time, you can't teach handwriting to older children. RUBBISH. It is about finding the right person. With the right skills and techniques. Who knows how to capture the attention of a teen."

Yes, this handwriting club continues through the whole year. The only time a break is taken is if it is a bank holiday e.g. on Good Friday, there is no Feedback Friday video.
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. Meaning handwriting help is at your fingertips.
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.
Yes. As a club member you get 10% discount on any usual priced lessons. Links to buy lessons at a reduced rate is in the club hub parent section.
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. Allowing your child to join them and gain essential in-person handwriting help.
Unfortunately we do not ship to any country in the EU.
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. This is something you have to apply for without our help.
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. We’ll never charge you without notice.
"Good handwriting doesn’t just happen — it’s built through the right tools, regular practice, and the right kind of support. That’s what the Get Set Write™ Club is all about."
