Writing For Confidence: Creative Writing

Join us for this FREE Creative Writing course for adults aged 19+

Build your confidence and express yourself through creative writing on this fun and friendly course. You will explore different topics each week to help you focus, express your thoughts, and gain mental clarity. It is a relaxed and safe space where writing becomes a positive way to relieve stress, boost memory, and see things in new ways. You will improve your writing skills and, if you feel comfortable, you can choose to share your work with others. Each week, we will explore a new theme, such as creating characters, nature, or hobbies.
