I’m Katie and I write poetry.

I run poetry for wellbeing workshops to support people to access writing for wellbeing and a supportive peer environment in a learning and sharing space. I currently run sessions in conjunction with Pendle Leisure Trust through their art for wellbeing funding.

I am an experienced facilitator with appropriate public liability insurance and renewing enhanced DBS check in place. I am also a trained Mental Health First Aider.

I am currently undertaking an accredited course on ‘Creating Circles’ due to be completed prior to spring 2025.

Outside of my arts work, I have a Law degree, and I currently work for the NHS. I am also working towards a level 7 apprenticeship/ masters course on leadership due to be completed in 2026.

I can run group sessions based around art journalling and poetry on an ad hoc basis, such as at workplaces and for events, please get in touch to discuss your ideas.

I am also able to write bespoke poems for yourself, an event or a loved one, please check out my online shop for more information.
