Please Note: Clients must attend within the first two weeks in order to continue on with the rest of the group. No experience needed! This group will focus on 6 workshops to explore how we can use spoken word/poetry in our recovery and to support our wellbeing. Spoken Word can provide a medium to share our stories and reflect upon our emotions. It can enhance our confidence and creates a social space for us to meet others. Together we will reflect on spoken word and the 5 ways to wellbeing: ‘Performance Skills’ (Be Active), ‘Muse in Mind’ (Keep Learning), ‘Finding My I’ (Be Mindful), ‘Speaking Together’ (Connect) and there will be a ‘Sharing Space’ (Give) where we will be able to share and practice our writing, and listen to others.
