Venue

A Big Thank you to everyone who attended the first Oakwood Literature Festival. We all had a great day and the talks and readings were very well received. I received so much positive feedback on the day about the whole event and I am immensely proud of what we achieved. It wouldn’t have been possible without the authors freely giving their time to make the day a success, many of whom have already committed to returning next year!

The volunteers worked their socks of in the running the cafe, the tombola, raffle and the bookstore.

Thank you to members of the public who attended and to those who purchased authors’ books and found their next favourite author! We will be posting photos very soon, so watch this space!
