This year saw the second Steyning Festival Short Story Competition for both adults and older children, continuing the Festival theme of “Uniting Generations”.

The prize-giving and readings of the winning stories takes place on Wednesday 2nd June at 11.30am in the sumptuous surroundings of Wiston House, the imposing C16th Grade 1 listed building managed by Wilton Park, sponsors of this event.
