Whittington Park Creative Writers: Life Writing

Come and join us for a relaxed hour and a half to experiment and have fun with creative writing. Every week, prompts and guided writing activities will be available to explore. Time will also be available, should you wish, to work on your own writing projects in a welcoming, supportive environment.

In September - October we will be exploring life writing, in January - February poetry, and in April - May short fiction.

Workshops take place on Thursday mornings from 10:30-12pm in the lounge at Whittington Park Community Centre.

No prior writing experience necessary — just bring yourselves, your curiosity, and your imagination! Writing materials and refreshments will be provided. These workshops are free with an optional donation of £3 each week.

Please sign up for the block of workshops if you are able to commit to at least 4 out of 6 of the sessions. You will book one ticket for the block and this will be for all the sessions.

Any questions about the workshops, please contact [email protected]. Any questions about the space and accessability, please ring Whittington Park Community Centre on 020 7272 1847.

The room is step free from the entrance and we have wheelchair accessible toilets. As the space is a community centre, we cannot guarentee it will be quiet at all times.
