Future Fridays: Write Now will be a series of monthly creative writing sessions to bring people together in a relaxed and nurturing space.

This is the second is the series of monthly 'collective imagination' sessions led by Shasta Ali and Jennifer Williams. We’ll use each session to go through some gentle writing exercises supporting people out of short term thinking and towards collectively imagining better futures.

We'll be gathering writing each month (although participation does not mean that you have to agree to share your work more widely) to build a wider creative piece in time for the fund launch. This will be an insight into our collective journey towards a regenerative future for Edinburgh and we hope will align with the launch of the Regenerative Futures Fund.

Absolutely no prior experience of writing is required. Just bring your creativity, an open mind and of course - your imagination! (Time machines may feature!)

There are 12 spaces available at this second session (please add yourself to the waiting list if you'd like to attend and the spaces are sold out and we'll make sure you get a space at a future session)

The second session is being shared with the End Poverty Edinburgh Members and the Organisation Learning Group + wider Organisation Group who attended the first session.

It will be opened out more widely for future sessions.

As the series progresses we plan to do a mix of online and in-person.

We will be building up to an in-person collective 'utopia' event in 2024.

This monthly series is happening alongside the development of the Regenerative Futures Fund, Edinburgh.

Please do come along and get involved.
