Ways with Words:

Saturday 9th September
a 1-day writing for wellbeing workshop in High Paradise, at the edge of North York Moors, Near Boltby.

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.

Places are limited, booking essential.

What does the session include?

This workshop includes 4 writing-for-wellbeing sessions; a small amount of walking in the local environment; breaks for morning refreshments, lunch and afternoon tea included.

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.
