Workshops and events

Workshops, events and performances

I do what I do because I love to see people’s imaginations take flight, to create a space in which people are free to be themselves.
I love to watch the journey of transformation that people undertake when they write, seeing people move out of fear and towards the fulfilment of their own dreams, claiming their voices, expressing their truth, taking up the space that is rightfully theirs.

Events

I love to host events so do get in touch if you need an interviewer or host for you own book launch or literary event.
See me take part in the Huddersfield Poetry Slam on Saturday 17th May.

I can tailor writing workshops to any group regardless of age, background, skill and experience. I have worked as a facilitator for Writing Yorkshire, Ignite Imaginations, St Luke’s hospice and the WEA. I’ve run workshops for schools, youth groups, community centres, drug rehabs, hospitals, museums, galleries, homeless hostels and refugee projects as well as running a range of private workshops for adults and children.
