Would you like to develop your skills as a storyteller? Hedgespoken is running a series of workshops online

Would you like to develop your skills as a storyteller? Hedgespoken is delighted to bring you a series of workshops and a longer storytelling course, all online, to hone your skills as a storyteller, whether you’re just beginning or have already trodden some miles in the peculiar boots of a tale-teller. Some of the workshops are in the morning, and some are in the evening.

Thanks to some Arts Council funding, there are a number of FREE places on each of these workshops and courses. 

Speaking to the Travellers' Times Rima Staines said: "We run Hedgespoken, a traveling storytelling theatre built on a vintage truck. We are running a number of online storytelling workshops for beginners and experts alike, as well as a longer six-month storytelling course. Thanks to some Arts Council funding, we've got some FREE bursary places for people from Gypsy/Romany/Traveller backgrounds as well as refugees/migrants and other travelling people. The workshops and courses start in August, but places are filling up fast"

Hedgespoken is an organisation committed to raising the voices and hearing the stories of Travelling peoples themselves rather than perpetuating the distant romantic or discriminatory stories about them.
