HOST OUR CREATIVE WORKSHOP
Writing a Letter to the Earth can be a simple and powerful way to deepen our connection with the natural world and the people we are sharing it with.
We have created an award-winning 60 - 90 minute workshop with prompts and exercises to help you bring people together to explore their responses to the planetary crisis, create more connections in your community, and write powerful letters that can be amplified to the public.
You can book one of our experienced facilitators to run our flagship workshop either in person or online, or see below our freely available workshop toolkits for you to use.
If hosting your own Letters to the Earth workshop, please use graphics in this folder to support your event and for your promotion. Connect with us on social media via our hashtag #LettersToTheEarth and tag us in your content on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
Write to us at community@letterstotheearth.com for support, to share your event's stories and pictures, or to book one of our team to run the workshop with you. For further details see here.

Our workshop resource won the Global Dimensions Teachers Choice Award 2022, described by the network of 17K teachers as 'deeply moving and motivating' and 'original, powerful and simple'.
They can be used in a variety of settings and can be adapted to suit an approach which feels most suitable for you:
-
at home: with friends and family
-
with neighbours: as part of a local group or gathering
-
at a local community meetup, eg a sports or interest group, or in faith-based settings
-
at your workplace or with your organisation
-
as part of a cause or project you care about
