Join local writer Helen Stockton for a day of poetry writing, in the heart of the Sussex countryside, using the surroundings to prompt your own poems. Examine what poetry is, try some different forms including free and blank verse, and use Kipling's poem, The Glory of the Garden, to examine rhyme, rhythm and poetic use of language.
Includes a light lunch from Bateman's Mulberry Tea-room, which you can choose on the day.
Suitable for adults. £60 per person.
Find out more and book tickets via the Bateman's website.
