Writing Group

Fulbourn Village Library

Would you like to join a new writing group meeting in Fulbourn Village Library once a month? We hope to produce an anthology in summer 2011 to show what living in Fulbourn means to us, whether we were born here or are new residents. 

Fulbourn has had many changes in the past, and with the re-building of the Windmill estate, is ‘moving on’ to a new stage in its development. What will be the effect of the increase in households? Can we become a sustainable village? We expect the past, present and future to be involved in our writing, and we’ll have visitors to our meetings to help inspire us. 

The first meeting will be on Tuesday November 9^th at 7.30pm in the Swifts Library. Terry Dash of Meldreth History Society will talk about ‘Unlocking memories of the past with older residents’
