Workshops

I am an experienced workshop facilitator and have led poetry groups in care homes, community centres, libraries, hospitals and prisons, with people of all ages, abilities and backgrounds, including people living with dementia and mental health issues.

Poetry for me has always been a source of emotional solace and political inspiration rather than just an intellectual exercise. It changed my life and the way I look at the world. Because of this, I believe that the reading, writing and discussion of poems should be made accessible to everyone, regardless of educational background or circumstances. My workshops are always designed with this in mind.

With my groups I aim to boost attendee’s confidence, providing them with a positive outlet for expression and an opportunity to form deeper social bonds with each other.

“Through our reading of poetry, and it’s deeper meaning I have become a big fan which was not so previously… Best of all is being part of a group for the support and enjoyment it brings. There is a sense of trust as we listen and share and, each of us has a voice. We are working, creating and learning together. Having this opportunity to share my work is empowering, helps me believe in it more and encourages me to keep going.” - Group member
