A
event
on Tuesday 8th July. The event starts at 19:00.
Soft Spot is a sharing space for words that make you feel something. It’s relaxed. No pressure. No judgment. You can share or just listen. No experience needed.
Bring anything you or someone else has written: an email that touched you, a text you carefully crafted, a poem that moves you, a story .... Be creative. Soft Spot is about connection, release, and being heard.
This is a gentle space. You can lie down, sit, move around, or sip tea as you listen. Many share deeply personal things here, so we hold space with kindness and respect. When someone reads, our one rule is that people listen quietly.
Want to share? Add your name to the hat at the start of the night. Everyone gets a chance. Readers are picked at random. No pressure. No hierarchy.
- This space welcomes LGBTQ+ folks and people from marginalised and underrepresented communities.
- This is a sober space.
- Please arrive between 6:45 and 7:00 pm. We start at 7ish.
- Readings happen in the top barn (map coming soon).
- The path up to the barn is cobbled, uneven and uphill. There are a few steps into the barn, but a community-made ramp will be in place for access.
- Free Hot drinks and biscuits are provided throughout.
