Women’s Prize for Non-Fiction

The Women’s Prize for Non-Fiction is a major new annual book prize that celebrates exceptional narrative non-fiction by women. The Prize promotes excellence in writing, robust research, original narrative voices and accessibility, showcasing women’s expertise across a range of fields.

The Prize is awarded annually and is open to all women writers from across the globe who are published in the UK and writing in English. The winner receives £30,000 and a limited-edition artwork known as the ‘Charlotte’, both gifted by the Charlotte Aitken Trust.

The 2025 Prize was awarded to Dr. Rachel Clarke for The Story of a Heart: a clear-sighted, vital exploration into the human experience behind organ donation.

Congratulations!
