Tales from the Trails: A Creative Writing Workshop with Owen Staton

Tales from the Trails

Part of Woodland Wellness: A Summer of Mindfulness at Craig Gwladus Country Park

Looking to reignite your creativity or take a mindful pause from everyday life? Join us for a unique series of creative writing workshops set against the beautiful backdrop of Craig Gwladus Country Park.

Led by celebrated Welsh storyteller and host of the Time Between Times podcast, Owen Staton, these small-group sessions are designed to help you connect with nature and tap into your imagination through storytelling, poetry, and personal reflection.

Each session will blend guided writing prompts, gentle exploration of the landscape, and inspiration from local folklore and the nature world. Whether you're a seasoned writer or trying it for the first time, these workshops offer a supportive and uplifting space to write, reflect, and recharge.
