We offer a selection of three open programmes, and the opportunity to create bespoke programmes which are delivered in-house.
Our programmes range from a one-day workshop to a three-day residential. At the core of all our programmes is the belief that words, and using them to create simple, compelling stories, helps us and our audiences understand things better.
Through our programmes, we explore:
-
- Transferable practices to bring back into your day-to-day work
- How to use your voice to deliver important messages through your writing and communication
- How to distil what you need to say without losing the essence of your message
- Connections to peer groups and the opportunity to build networks across the sector

Our Programme Commitment
We commit to creating an inspirational and reflective experience on all our programmes. That’s why we use a combination of group work and dedicated one-to-one time to build confidence in using your voice, and to ensure a high degree of personal attention to your needs.
We will always have two facilitators, and commit to working in small groups to maximise the impact for you. And finally, we will choose inspiring locations to stimulate writing that really connects.
In return, all that we ask is for you to commit to your writing journey and come with an open mind.
