Poet-In-Residence of the Cuckmere Pilgrim Path - Workshops

As part of my role as Poet-in-Residence for the Cuckmere Pilgrim Path ( https://www.cuckmerepilgrimpath.org.uk ) I’m going to be running some workshops.

These stand-alone workshops are free and open to anyone over 18 years old. Beginners welcome. No experience needed. It would be useful to bring writing materials, but I’ll have some spare paper and pens.

We will be focusing on writing in response to all sorts of stimulation including our visual and tactile environment and using some playful and low-tech art methods to add to the work. I’ll be supplying any art materials needed.

Tuesday 7th October 2025 1pm to 3pm - Selmeston Church (St Mary's Church, The Street, Selmeston, Near Polegate, East Sussex, BN26 6UD)

Writing in response to the language in the church and exploring working with visual art using rubbings in the church and in nature (depending on the weather). Bring pen and paper if you can.

Tuesday 4th November 2025 1pm to 3pm - Berwick Church (St Michael & All Angels Church, Berwick, Near Polegate, East Sussex, BN26 6SR)

Note: If the Tuesday afternoon workshops are popular, I’ll add some more dates.
