Are you a poet or a writer who is eager to develop your skills in delivering creative writing workshops in your community but don’t know how to get started? Do you believe in the power of literature to heal, inspire and empower, but don’t know how to make it happen?  

Join writers and creative facilitators Dr Sophie Buchaillard, Taylor Edmonds and Sian Hughes as they share their experiences, best practice in planning, delivering and evaluating a project, possible funding streams and the challenges and opportunities they’ve come across. Whether you’re interested in running mindful sessions to support a community’s health and well-being, help individuals nurture a closer connection to nature, or inspire young audiences to engage with literature, the speakers will be on-hand to answer your questions at the end of a lively panel discussion. You’ll leave the event with a clearer idea of what the role of a creative facilitator entails and what your next steps will be. 

This event has been organised to coincide with Literature Wales’ Sgwennu’n Well | Writing Well 2025-2026 application window, open until 5.00 pm, Thursday 13 March 2025. This is a 15-month programme offering intense training to up-and-coming literary facilitators.
