About this event

Join us for an evening of poetry and spoken word supporting vital charities in honour of our friends and their son Elijah.

Sign up for a 3-minute open mic spot to share your creative work - we want to hear your voice and your experiences on motherhood, matrescence, birth, mental health, pregnancy, loss, grief, joy, the highs and lows in the same moment, identity shifts, community - whatever is important to you.

All proceeds will go to Tommy's, the pregnancy and baby loss charty and 4Louis, a charity supporting families with child loss.

Tickets are free but there are two options, one if you would like to read and one if you are coming as a guest. We will be organising a running order on the night as you arrive.

There will be a raffle to help us raise money with some generous prizes donated including:

  • x2 tickets to Bookface Sip and Swap with John Niven
  • A space at the Glasgow Summer Soul Sessions retreat day
  • Yoga and Creative Writing workshop
  • A signed copy of 'The Republic of Parenthood' by Rhiannon Lucy Cosslett
  • A signed copy of 'Swell' by Maria Ferguson
  • A signed copy of 'Hark' by Alice Vincent
  • A bundle of beautiful magazines from Motherlore

The event is 18+.
