Where Could A Deeper Relationship
With Words Take You?

  • A group of palm fronds against a blue sky

    I never expected to be standing in a circle smelling wild things and feeling a sense of transcendent community.

    Jonathan Holt

  • Late afternoon meadow with bluebells and trees

    My first experience was magical. Gillian and Neil were kind, thoughtful, playful and supportive. A profound and beautiful retreat.

    Sarah Trounce

  • Grand sunset image with hills in silhouette

    This was my first ever 'writing course' and I loved every minute. It was emotional, inspiring, difficult, liberating, educational, and much more besides.

    Tara Simpson

  • A grassy landscape with a large bubble floating in space

    So helpful for my work life and for me. I can’t say that about any other work training or conference I ’ve been to.
