Minerva Arts has teamed up with Great Places Housing Group to give adults aged 18 and over a chance to develop their creative writing skills.

The sessions are open to adults in Knutsford and take place on Wednesday evenings from October 16 to November 6, from 6.30pm to 8.30pm at The Welcome in Longridge.

The first part of the evening will give people a chance to have a chat over a brew and biscuits.

The workshop will take place from 7pm to 8.30pm.

Project manager Emily Edwards said: ”Participants will work with an experienced professional writer to build their creative writing skills, whilst also having the opportunity to connect and collaborate with others, develop their creativity and writing through a range of genres.

“We encourage participants to attend all four sessions if possible, but you are welcome to attend as many as you are available for.”

Closing date for applications is 5pm on October 15.
