Well not really a cafe, but definitely a place for like-minded writers to meet, coffee and cake included... I would like to arrange/offer a fortnightly Saturday morning writers workshop group to encourage, support and tackle those more difficult parts of writing - whether you are a first short-story newcomer or honing your novel for publication. The first part of the session would be an interactive workshop/tuition session covering such things as plot development, character assassination and wri …

We are a group dedicated to ascending peaks and enjoying panoramic views. We organise hikes in the hills around the country and abroad - occasionally going away on several days hiking trips. For each day's hike we generally aim to achieve at least 1000ft in total accent and at least 12 miles distance. In the modest peaks in the south east this will mean linking several hills together which will sometimes lead to lengthier walks. On trips to the national parks we will endeavour to choose challeng …

Less than 20% of people who purchase personal development books get past the first chapter. Less than 1% of people actually use the material in these books to improve their lives in the way that they intended to use it. I am sure we can all relate to this? Well I certainly can! Is it the book that didn't work or we didn't make it work?! :) For the last few years I have been working with a group of incredibly committed individuals to understand why this is and put solutions in place for us all to …
