The WordTherapy Centre was founded in 2015 by Diane Medhurst and Christine Hollywood, inspired by a love of writing, reading and words.
We facilitate poetry, writing and biblio-therapy workshops. Research shows that writing, finding words for feelings and connecting with our own stories and those of others have a positive impact on physical, emotional and mental health.
We promote access to these health and wellbeing benefits by holding spaces for writing, reading and sharing stories in the community, within organisations and in collaboration with others in Sussex and the South East.
The WordTherapy Centre offers a diverse and creative programme of workshops which are honed to the requirements of group participants.
We create a welcoming, safe and enjoyable environment.
Our workshops are for everyone.
Writing can lead to self discovery. We create safe and supportive spaces for this process to evolve.
