The Researcher and Innovator Development Academy (RIDA) team is hosting a series of on campus and online writing retreats from February to July 2025.
Join us for focused time on a writing task of your choice, surrounded by others doing the same. There is no ‘facilitation’ or specific feedback on your writing but we encourage you to set yourself writing targets and share progress with each other. There will normally be a member of staff on hand to keep time.
Bring your laptop, any materials you need, and a plan for what you want to write in the session.
All PGRs and staff welcome.
You can book for as many sessions as you like, outlook calendar requests will be sent in advance.
NB. If you can only make part of the session, please be mindful of others who may need silence to focus (suggested timings will be in the outlook invitation).
