Manon Eames

Wales Chair

“Having been a member of Equity for many years, when I started to write professionally, about 20 years ago, I was glad to find that there was also a writers’ union which I could join, and which would not only represent my interests, but could offer help and support to me with negotiations over rights and contracts etc. Since becoming a member, I have had the need to call on the Writers’ Guild for advice on numerous occasions, and have always had an accurate, helpful and prompt response. These are obviously particularly difficult and challenging times for the creative industries, making the amazing work achieved by the Guild even more important. I am therefore very glad to have become Co-Chair of the Welsh Committee, and it is a privilege to be a member of an organisation with such integrity and purpose, and which works so hard, across many media and platforms, to protect writers from unfairness.”
