We are all living in a changing world. The Story Weaver Team at SCCAN would like to encourage you to take time out each month to Creative Journal around the changes we are living through. This practise is an opportunity to connect with what matters to you, the changes you are bearing witness to and stories of possible futures you’d like to tell. Each month we’ll be providing a series of prompts to help you do just that.
This month we’re thinking creatively about the natural world which is part of your community and encourage you to give it voice in your creative writing.
- What access to do you have to green spaces, parks, rivers, beaches etc. in your community?
- Is it enough?
- Is this natural space under threat of being encroached by development?
Write a piece that gives voice to nature and the natural environment that is part of your community, what it wants, what it needs to thrive, the threats it feels to its wellbeing and everything it gives to your health and wellbeing.
Write a creative piece in response to the voice of nature. How can you co-exist in harmony and mutual respect and support?
