Our residential poetry retreat – The Thread You Follow: faith, prayer and poetry – is fully booked (but demand was so great that we are running it again in November, see below). I’m delighted to be leading this weekend alongside Demelza Henderson, the co-ordinator of Exeter Diocesan Spiritual Direction Network. Rooted in a simple structure of prayer and silence, the weekend will include poetry reading and, for those who want to, poetry writing, at the wonderful Sheldon retreat centre on the edge of Dartmoor. There will be plenty of time to rest and relax on this, the first scheduled Poems for the path ahead residential retreat. If you’d like full details of the November event, which will be at St Rita’s Centre in Honiton, please email: thethreadyoufollow@gmail.com. If you’d like to find out about other Poems for the Path Ahead events, please visit the contact form on this website and ask to join the mailing list.
