Held at New Park Community Centre and Cinema, the course is specially designed for retirees who are keen to enhance their writing skills or explore writing as a new hobby. Whether you are a complete beginner or have some writing experience, you’ll learn essential skills such as narrative structure, character development, plot creation, and more.

“I truly believe that we are all natural-born storytellers and each of us has a story within us waiting to be shared,” said Richard Avery. “This course is designed to provide retirees with a creative outlet, giving them the opportunity to express their life experiences through writing. Writing is a therapeutic and fulfilling activity, and it's never too late to start.”
This course offers the perfect way to start a new hobby in the new year — stimulating the mind, encouraging personal reflection, and providing a fulfilling activity to embrace in retirement. Whether you're interested in writing for fun, preserving memories, or embarking on a personal project, this course offers a welcoming space to nurture your creative side. Also makes a wonderful gift for someone you love.
