We are treated to the uplifting poetry of Kezzabelle Ambler, Performance Poet, Author, and 11th Bard of Northamptonshire, who also runs her Weaving Words workshops to support wellbeing within the mental health space. We talk about the power of words and how sometimes we fear “writing”…yet a “scribble” – can help us release so much emotion and restore some balance.
