Creative Writing Group

Join Patrick Wright each Wednesday, from 2.30pm @ the Sanctuary for a creative writing drop-in session. This will include an activity and a discussion of how creative writing can have therapeutic effects. There will also be an opportunity to read out and share your work. Please bring along a notebook and something to write with.

The writing group is free and anyone can join in. The group will meet every Wednesday until 22nd December, 2021.
