The third of our Sunday Soul Sessions. A safe, reflective space in which to write about the things that really matter.
About this Event

For the new academic year, we're excited to introduce our Sunday Soul Sessions - a series of workshops for writers who want to delve deep into the big issues and reflect on what it means to be human in a changing world.

This workshop will focus on writing about family. This will be a chance to explore and record family memories that you have always wanted to get down on the page. Family life has inspired so much great writing in all the genres, and many people describe wanting to write down their memories for future generations. This workshop will allow us the time and space to explore ourselves and the people we are close to.

Whether you're writing memoir, essays, fiction or poetry or just want a to safe space to put some words on the page, this space is for you.
