These workshops provide a safe,confidential space within a small group (2-8 people) to explore your personal and professional experiences caring for others, and thinking how you can care for yourself.

We will do this using a carefully designed blend of creative, expressive and reflective writing, drawing on poetry therapy and journaling and other techniques, using poetry, prose and mixed media as a stimulus for your writing, reflections and discussion.

Each Saturday workshop will be via Zoom, and is two hours long (19:00-21:00 GMT) with breaks, to allow for writing, and sharing the writing process +/- extracts of your writing, and for discussion.

Each workshop is based on relevant themes for those caring for others in a therapeutic capacity, to encourage a focus on your own wellbeing needs:
