WILDWRIGHTS

Wild Writing Workshops  |  Seasonally from Spring 2024

We stepped into the enchanting world of WILDWRIGHTS at the beautiful Sudley Walled Garden in Liverpool.

We discovered nature’s wonders at our seasonal writing workshops, which aimed to spark creative adventures for curious minds by connecting with the wild world.

With fun Expedition Guides and activities for all ages, participants enjoyed crafting poetic treasures and tales by exploring the vibrant ecosystem around them.

Thank you for joining us to build bonds with nature and each another in this amazing community space.

Why Wildwrights?

Creative writing in a natural setting can be amazingly beneficial for our emotional health and wellbeing.

Immersing ourselves in nature has been scientifically shown to reduce anxiety, elevate mood, and promote an overall sense of calm. The sights, sounds, and scents of the walled garden create a soothing, restorative escape from the stresses of everyday life.

Focusing our senses on the living beauty around us – the flutter of a butterfly, the texture of a leaf – encourages mindfulness, keeping us grounded and present in the moment. This can be incredibly therapeutic.

Being part of a supportive community sharing the experience of nature also forges great social connections vital to emotional health. And tapping into our creativity by capturing our thoughts and feelings through writing can be so liberating.
