EVENTS & WORKSHOPS
Book here for ticketed events in our light and airy Distillery space, with its own poetry library, tea and coffee and other resources. You will also find information about our regular reading and writing groups.
We aim to host the country’s best poets and workshop leaders, with a strong emphasis on good mental health and wellbeing in this lazy Shropshire town, set in the beautiful hills that inspired some of our greatest writers, and in the heart of AE Housman and Mary Webb country.
Subsidised places are available for many of our events – please enquire via email if you’re interested.
The Book Now button will take you to the Eventbrite Event Page.
