Write, reflect and connect in this restorative creative writing workshop exploring joy with poet, facilitator and Poetry Pharmacist Katie.

How might we welcome more joy into our lives - and what does it feel like when it arrives?

Over 90 minutes, we’ll use conversation prompts, poetry and creative writing exercises to explore joy in new ways.

No writing experience is needed, and there’s no expectation to share. Just bring a notebook, a pen, and an open heart.

Pop in to our Oxford Street Poetry Pharmacy where award-winning poet Jen Feroze and her trusty vintage typewriter will be writing bespoke, on-the-spot poems about anything you can dream up.

No need to book - drop in on the day
