Slaithwaite Library: Trees in Mind: A creative writing workshop

Slaithwaite Library: Trees in Mind: A creative writing workshop

Trees In Mind project is offering a series of creative writing workshops across the Colne Valley to immortalise the journey of the valley during World War One. From individual stories on the front to the women’s suffrage in the mills, all aspects of life and death in the Valley will be brought back to life through storytelling, poetry and spoken word.

The workshops at Slaithwaite and Golcar library will be delivered by Winston Plowes. Based near Hebden Bridge in Calderdale, Winston Plowes lives aboard his floating home with his cat ‘Fatty’. In the past year he has collaborated with The Arvon Foundation, the BBC, Glastonbury Festival, UCLAN and Manchester Museum and has recently tutored on courses and workshops for The Square Chapel, The Princes Trust and West Yorkshire Playhouse
