Events

Read Write Express offers Writing for Wellbeing evening workshops around the theme of self-reflection and self discovery.  The workshops provide a supportive space where, through reading, discussion, writing, sharing and listening, participants will use a variety of approaches to make space for themselves and engage in creative activities, as well as considering ways of dealing with stress with the aim of developing perspective, self awareness and confidence.

The workshops may also include other non-writing activities such as light movement, breathing, visualisation, voicework, pairwork, laughter, drama games and other means of creative expression.  

No writing experience necessary, just a willingness to explore and experiment.

For the time being, all workshops are held online. To read about some of our previous workshops. please check our blog posts and feedback.
