I believe that we all have a unique story to tell and that writing has the potential to weave powerful collective tapestries within communities. I have led workshops with people from all walks of life and in a variety of settings, including education, healthcare and public libraries. I have helped to produce two community anthologies, hosted poetry nights and have performed my own poetry in prestigious venues across the UK; my poetry has also been published online and in-print. My research focused on remembering passed loved ones as a family group years postloss, with a major result being enhanced family relationships and the proposal of ‘creative memory-writing’ as a subset of CWTP.
