Helena Attlee and Rachel Roddy

Food writers Helena Attlee and Rachel Roddy explore the art of food writing in this three-hour masterclass.

During this dynamic and practical workshop, they will lead you through a series of carefully designed exercises steeped in sensory experience, while introducing you to the work of some of our finest food writers, old and new. By the end of the morning you will have learned new skills, increased your confidence and worked together as a group to craft an article of classic, narrative-led food writing of your own.

Attlee is author of the bestselling The Land Where Lemons Grow: Italy and its Citrus Fruit, winner of the Guild of Food Writers Food Book of the Year. She is a feature writer for a range of magazines, and leads writing workshops all over the country. Roddy is an award-winning writer of recipe books about Italian food, including Five Quarters, winner of the Guild of Foodwriters First Book Award, and has a popular weekly column in the Guardian.

Coffee and tea will be served during the workshop.

This event lasts three hours.
