WELLBEING WRITING SPACE
Wellbeing for Writers is our annual season of events to support writers with their wellbeing. It returned for its third year in 2026.
Writing is often a solitary journey, full of challenges that demand resilience, in these times more than ever. Each summer, we create accessible space for writers to nurture their creativity and wellbeing.
Whether you need meditation and rest to recharge your creative energy, strategies for tackling difficult themes in your work, or movement to align body and mind, Wellbeing for Writers has something for you. We hope you enjoyed joining us and creating in the sunlight this summer!
Please sign up to our newsletter to be first to hear about future Wellbeing for Writers events!
Free and low-cost places are available for all events.
Supported by ALCS.
