The Crime Writers’ Association

Supporting crime writing

One of the major aims of the CWA is to support crime writing. We do this in many ways; some direct, others more subtle. Our endeavours put the CWA at the heart of the world of crime fiction and non-fiction within the UK, and make us a beacon for other countries and their own crime-writing organisations.
