Health and Social Care students visited our Freeflow Creativity Café for a session and have sent us some feedback of their experiences.
"As some one who has lost touch with their writing, coming into a space that is so welcoming and immediately feel at home and be made to feel that my creativity is really appreciated and understood is really a foundation for creative confidence. You can’t grow as a writer unless you have this community around you. Everyone here is so open.. so generous not just with their creativity but also their vulnerabilities. To speak about things that might be painful or experiences they’ve had that might inform the way that they see things, everybody really brings something different and it’s an honour to hear everyone’s stories and life experiences." Freeflow Creativity Cafe Member.
"Listening to the poems and what they mean, it’s the very cathartic because it reminds me we are .. holders of ourselves.. and our identity, so hearing other people’s poetry, there is a self that can’t be taken away, and whether it’s in a rented house or favourite food, as someone who’s lost quite a bit, that’s so important.
It’s been very nurturing and hear people speak about where they are at in themselves, either painful or frustrating .. it’s still you. There’s a synergy and energy produced here, someone says something and you think I didn’t think of that. When I hear someone say something it is the poetry in it that is the energy."
