What is the Changeling Annual?

Changeling Annual is an upcoming publication for children ages 8-12. It aims to feature art, writing and activities produced entirely by (grown-up) neurodivergent creatives.

Changeling came to life in 2022, created by autistic children’s writer and poet Emmy Clarke, as part of Contact Theatre’s Future Fires scheme.

Why “Changeling”?

In European folklore, changelings were believed to be fairy children left in place of human children. Being not of the human realm, changelings often portrayed “untypical” behaviours that are — in modern day — instantly familiar to many neurodivergent people.

Here at Changeling, we want to reclaim the word changeling. Yes, we are untypical — and that is brilliant!
