We will never obtain the social and economic structure we want if we don’t vigilantly cultivate the ability to imagine it.

We cannot achieve what we cannot imagine. We run creative writing workshops for a range of audiences and on a range of topics.

What we offer

Our one-hour climate imagination writing workshops are designed to:

  • be accessible to writers of all ages, skills and experience levels
  • encourage creativity, innovation, and empathy
  • move from an intellectual to an embodied approach to writing
  • address and alleviate climate anxiety
  • provide a ‘creativity respite’ in the midst of a stressful world
  • create positive visions of the future
  • raise energy levels and increase motivation
  • empower participants to consider what kind of world they want to live in – and how we can get there

We can offer out-of-the-box pre-designed workshops for your community group, organisation, school or training session, or work with you to design something bespoke for your needs.
