Brontë Parsonage Museum
Founded in 1893, The Brontë Society is one of the oldest literary societies in the world and is responsible for running the much-loved Brontë Parsonage Museum in Haworth.
The Brontë collections at Brontë Parsonage Museum are the largest in the world and inspire writers, artists and scholars across the globe. Once home to the most famous sisters in literature, the parsonage has been perfectly preserved to allow visitors to explore and gain an insight into their everyday lives as well as see for themselves where some of their greatest novels were written.

In The Bookseller, YA author Julie Mayhew has an idea for inclusion for other other authors visiting both private and state schools.

Once I achieved some measure of success, I became a supporter of Arts Emergency, a charity that creates an ‘old boy’ network for the state-educated. I mentor for social mobility charity Brightside, advising young people how to access a career like mine. And, as a YA author, I vowed never to speak at private schools.
Until I did.
The bookshop arranged the visit and, via a series of miscommunications, I only realised on entering the school’s reception – wood-panelling, fresh flowers, plush armchairs, a view of the manicured gardens – exactly where I was.
I ran a workshop where Year 8s talked of reading Charlotte Brontë and Aldous Huxley just for kicks, and I quickly switched to writing exercises aimed at adults.
Later, a debate arose among Year 9s around an issue in my book The Big Lie – do some children deserve a better education than others? The pupils saying ‘yes’ believed their parents worked harder than everyone else, a stance challenged by the socially-conscious. The teacher who escorted me back to reception could hardly contain his joy that I had brought up what he called “the elephant in the room”.
That same week, I visited a state school in my hometown where the English teacher had forgotten I was coming and left me to teach his classes for the day. His bored A Level English Literature students were mostly reading Sylvia Day and they struggled with the writing exercises in which the private Year 8s had excelled.
That was my education and I’d done okay in spite of it, not because of it. I cried in the car on the way home.
