Climate Week North East: Nature Writing with Roshni Gallagher

Nature Writing with Roshni Gallagher

In this one-off workshop for Climate Week, poet Roshni Gallagher invites you to explore your personal relationship with nature by delving into memory, self, and belonging.  You’ll practice weaving voice and protest through your poems, paying attention to small details in the landscape to cultivate a sense of abundance, and noticing how your body moves through the natural world.

Roshni is a poet from Leeds living in Edinburgh. She is co-winner of the Edwin Morgan Poetry Award 2022 and a Scottish Book Trust New Writer’s Awardee 2022. Her debut pamphlet Bird Cherry is published by Verve Poetry Press (Feb. 2023). She writes about nature, memory, and quietness.
