Access to the Snug is, regrettably, down a flight of stairs with no lift access, free tickets for this event are limited due to capacity.Join award nominated nature writer and sociologist Dominic Hinde for a workshop exploring the challenges and opportunities of writing nature and landscape differently.

*Events at the Fair are on a sliding scale of price -we completely understand paying for one or two events and then getting free spots for others. The Radical Book Fair is entirely bookshop run and ticket sales are vital to keeping the fair sustainable and paying all our speakers so all support is heartily welcome!
*If you'd like to help make the book fair accessible to more folks, please consider adding to our pay-it-forward fund HERE.
