Thank you to all twelve of the lively and talented students who began writing their life stories on this course. We had a wonderful time, sharing lots of laughter and a few tears too. It was a very special few days – we wanted to ‘stowaway’ and stay in that inspirational creative ‘Denman bubble’.

If you’ve ever thought about writing your life story or memoirs this course is a great place to begin. Come and join us and enjoy learning how to plan, organise and write about your life with support from an experienced life story writing tutor.

Sharing tales of childhood, school days, work, friends and family with a small group of like-minded people is relaxing, therapeutic and enhances your sense of well-being. Personal memories and experiences add a unique perspective to family history projects. Life stories are an important part of 20th Century social history and are sometimes suitable for publication (think of ‘Call the Midwife’!!) This course is suitable for all ages and abilities, including those with no experience of writing.
