What's on in Woolwich

Greater London, England

Coffee mornings that serve actual decent coffee. Quiz nights that get genuinely competitive (yes, even question 7). Markets where you'll find something better than the supermarket. Woolwich doesn't do things by halves — check what's on this week and see for yourself. We're talking book clubs that actually finish the book, bingo nights that get surprisingly rowdy, film screenings in village halls with seats older than your grandad. The sort of events where half the entertainment is seeing who else shows up. No pretence, no airs and graces, just good local stuff happening near you.

Sunday Creative Writing Course: Five Weeks of Spring

Join writer and teacher, Anna Dempsey, for this five-week course of guided fiction writing, sharing words in a tender, supportive community. This course is perfect for writers of any stage who want to explore their voice, try new ideas, finish a writing project or connect with fellow creatives in a relaxed and welcoming environment. Each week, you will focus on different elements of short story and novel writing including plot, dialogue, character, setting and pacing. You’ll be looking at spring inspired writing and pop culture to do this. Think the ridiculous film Spring Breakers meets Anne of Green Gables meets Mary Oliver in a field of sunflowers. These five weeks are a great time to start a new short story, novel or dive back into some old idea notebooks.
