Our monthly Speak Your Mind event happens on the First Wednesday of every month, at The Old Needleworks, Redditch (B97 6HD). Join us from 6.30 for a 7pm start. The force of nature that is Jemima Hughes is our monthly host and she is joined each month by a featured act (one of our past course and/or anthology participants) and a headliner (who is a professional poet). Open mic slot are available at each event, but come early to reserve yours.

Weds October 4th will feature Antony Owen and Neil Laurenson as a double headliner. This event will be an autism mental health special. We’d like to reserve open mic slots for neurodivergent people (and those with a close connection to someone neurodivergent) this month, so feel free to email ahead to reserve yours if you fit the bill! (If we don’t fill these spaces we’ll open them up on the night).
