The Mums' Writing Circle is a weekly mother and child group centred around Mum, using writing practice to support the transition into motherhood and build community.  ​

​

We use writing to process our experiences, navigate our positioning in the world, and take up space as mothers. Drawing on diverse forms and motherhood narratives, from creative non-fiction to poetry, we explore and celebrate our own voices and stories, and find ways in which the rhythms of writing practice and every day lives as mums can be intertwined. 

​

Importantly, we meet in beautiful spaces, where Mums can spend an hour a week releasing, reconnecting, and recharging.

​​

No writing experienced is necessary.  Just bring a notebook and pen!

​

This group is open for anyone who self-identifies as a Mum or with motherhood, whatever way that looks.
