Creative Writing Workshop: Translating Chronic Pain

Are you an adult interested in Creative Writing? Do you have personal experience of chronic or persistent pain, either past or present?

At this workshop, participants will have a chance to experiment with writing short creative fragments describing or imagining pain experience and/or other aspects of experience when living with pain.

This is a pilot workshop, which we hope to develop to help people living with chronic pain. The workshop leaders are Zoe Lambert and Sara Wasson of Lancaster University.

The event is free, runs from 11am to 1pm, and the venue is wheelchair accessible; tea, coffee and biscuits will be provided. Spaces are limited, and participants are asked to sign up in advance. Further participant information is available here (PDF link).

To sign up or for more information, please email Sara Wasson at S.Wasson@lancaster.ac.uk or visit Lancaster University’s Translating Chronic Pain website.
