THE PENARTH LIBRARY CREATIVE WRITING WORKSHOPS

In 2025, join local author Sophie Buchaillard at Penarth Library for a monthly creative writing workshop.

Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned writer, join a group of like-minded people to explore your writing potential in a warm and friendly environment, under the guidance of local author Sophie Buchaillard. Through a series of writing prompts, discussions and feedback sessions, try writing in different genres and focus on aspects of writing.

“Since 2023, the Creative Writing Classes in Penarth have transformed the library into a vibrant hub of storytelling, connection, and creativity. These sessions go beyond writing—they empower individuals, support wellbeing, and foster inclusion. Led by Sophie, participants find their voices, share their experiences, and build confidence, creating a ripple effect that strengthens our wider community.” Jordan Forse, Libraries and Cultural Services Manager

The workshops take place the first Saturday of the month, 10-12pm. Attendance is free, and places limited to 10 participants per workshop.

Booking your place via Penarth Library, either in person, by calling 029 2070 8438 or via email: penarthlibrary@valeofglamorgan.gov.uk
