About the event
Why write a military memoir? Whether it’s for personal reasons, developmental goals or to commemorate a loved one, the motives for writing military memoirs are as varied as the Armed Forces themselves.
In this expert-led workshop, you will explore the processes, outcomes and impact of recording and sharing experiences of Forces life.
Whether you have served yourself, been part of a military family, or are simply fascinated by someone else’s life, this day will help you take things further.
