Alnwick Circle Autumn Term

Alnwick Playhouse has been part of the town's heartbeat since 1925 - a theatre, cinema and community hub. Step off the streets and into No. 32 - a home from home that will truly cocoon you and you write and connect with other mothers. Our Writing Circles are weekly mother & baby groups, using writing & community in beautiful settings to support the transition into motherhood. The circles are open to anyone who self-identities with mothering or motherhood, whatever way that looks.

Taster session

Experience the magic of a writing circle before committing to a whole term. Please note: Buying a taster session doesn't automatically hold you a place on the current term - if the term you've tried is already full by the time you come to book, we can't guarantee a spot. If that happens, you won't lose out: we'll guarantee you a place on the following term instead.

About the host

Hi, I'm Sarah

I run MotherFolk circles in North Northumberland

Born and raised in Windsor, I relocated to the North East in 2018 after training and working as a midwife. I'm a self-professed hobbit: lover of good food, long books and a cosy pub! I live with my husband and our 3 wildling boys, and 1 very patient cat.

Becoming a mother was everything that I dreamed of and nothing that I could have imagined. Writing became an integral part of the toolkit that I used to process my experience.

I hope that by running MotherFolk circles and being your space holder in North Northumberland, you too can experience this!

Frequently asked questions

Absolutely not! Our circles are not writing classes, and they’re not about producing perfect pieces of writing. Writing is simply the tool we use to connect with ourselves and unpack our experiences a little bit. We will always give you very easy prompts to jump into, and you will never be asked to read your writing aloud to the group.
