writing for wellbeing 'IN PARADISE' | 1-day workshop, in heavenly setting (with amazing local food!) | High Paradise Farm, Nr Boltby, N Yorks. YO7 2HT | Sun 1st September, 10.30am–4pm
Join Kate Oldfield for a day of mindful noticing and gentle writing prompts in the beautiful surroundings of High Paradise Farm. With wild moors behind and, what James Herriot called, ‘the most beautiful view in England’ spreading out below, this is a fantastic opportunity to make time for yourself and find your own voice, in Paradise.
All are welcome, whatever level you believe yourself to be. Kate can tailor the day (and the writing prompts) to individual needs.
Most importantly, it is fun and friendly. Just come with a pen and paper and a beginner’s mind.
Places are limited, booking essential.
£125 to include coffee, lunch & tea. (Fabulous homemade food from the tearooms made with local ingredients).
(One concession place is available through generous sponsorship – please contact Kate to enquire via the website enquiry form for more.)
Led by Kate Oldfield, writer, poet, writing mentor and curator of creative communities at The Writing Well.
What does the session include?
This workshop includes 4 writing sessions; a small amount of walking in the local environment; breaks for morning refreshments, lunch and afternoon tea included.
What people have said about previous High Paradise workshops:
"Brilliant - it just flew by too quickly. It was laid back but had enough structure too. Amazing venue and food and drink. Beyond expectations.”
“Life changing.”
What people have said about Kate:
"Kate is a clever, kind facilitator who includes everyone, keeps the pace, unwrapping our best creative selves. I love it; a doctor should prescribe it.”
"Fabulous: kind, encouraging, organised. (Kate) created a safe space for all - educated and inspiring!”
