Headspace Writers - Loughborough
Submitted by Editor on Wed, 06/10/2009 - 15:01
We are delighted to announce the start of a new creative writers' workshop group in Loughborough - HeadSpace Writers. In the spirit of HeadSpace Poetry, sessions will be led by renowned poet Lydia Towsey and aimed at adults with experience of mental health issues. Workshops will be held at on the 2nd Wednesday of the month, starting from Wednesday 8th July. The move to Loughborough for this group was driven by the demand from writers in Charnwood. The project is being kindly funded by Mercury Action Trust, Charnwood Borough Council and Leicestershire NHS Partnership Trust. So far, we have 7 sessions planned, but hope that it will become a regular group. Read on for full venue details and dates.....
