Soft Spot at Bridge Farm
See event details

A event on Tuesday 5th August. The event starts at 19:00.


Soft Spot is a sharing space for any words that hold emotional resonance for you. It’s a relaxed, no-pressure, no-judgment environment where you’re free to express yourself or simply listen. No experience needed.

Bring anything: an email that touched you, a particularly poignant horoscope, a ramble from your notes app, a poem that moves you, or one you’ve written yourself. Feel free to be creative. People read things ranging from poems for their lost love, to their eBay watch list (with all the prices). Soft Spot is about connection, release, and being heard (and sometimes it’s about being silly).

If you’d like to share, just add your name to the hat, everyone who does will have a chance to read. The order of readers is chosen at random, with no pressure or hierarchy.

Everyone is welcome, with a special invitation to LGBTQ+ communities, Black and Brown communities, and other underrepresented groups.

- Sober space.
- Please arrive for 7:00.
- Readings happen inside the top barn (a map will be sent out before event).
- Hot drinks and biscuits on tap.
