A six-week in-person programme created in association with Arts and Minds, delivered by practitioner Ruth Cocksedge.
CUH staff member taking part in a creative writing group session.
The sessions used different writing forms as tools (i.e. journaling, poetry) to support the processing of thoughts and emotions.
Ruth originally delivered this as an online programme in Summer 2021, this latest iteration of the programme demonstrated not only the strong appetite in creative writing at CUH but the also the benefit of applying it to wellbeing.
I will continue to write but also to expand on my reading. I have learnt that I am more capable in my writing skills than what I believed and learnt to value other's life experiences.
