As part of the 75th year of the NHS anniversary celebrations, the Newcastle Hospitals Charity Arts Programme, in partnership with New Writing North, is hosting a Writer in Residence.
Laura Lindow will be offering creative writing workshops and special events for staff across Newcastle Hospital settings and would like to invite all Trust staff to take part.
Whether you are someone who writes, wants to write or has never considered writing before, if you have an interest in telling stories through creative writing, or think that you might, then this is for you.
We’d love to meet you, to tell you more, and to find out your ideas to help us to shape the programme!
Join us in one of our taster sessions, for a warm and informal chance to meet Laura Lindow, Writer in Residence, to share a chat and perhaps take part in an introductory scribble.
No prior experience needed, or commitment expected. Just you and a desire to explore your creative voice.
Come along to and see what it’s all about! No need to book, drop-in at any time.
