Donna Campbell
I have had poetry published in various literary magazines and anthologies and have two collections of poetry “Mongrel” 2021 and “Looking for Mae West” in 2023. Both published by Seahorse Publications. I am part of the collective Wanderlust Women who have three collections of poetry “Wanderlust Women” 2021, “Extra Baggage” 2023 and “She’s Some Woman” 2025. We have toured our work throughout the U.K, Europe and Australia over the past few years.
For me, creative writing is a powerful tool for health and well-being. The imagination can sometimes be a difficult place to access, especially for those recovering from past trauma and addiction. Creative writing opens up a space where people can explore all aspects of who they are and what they can achieve whilst discovering a new way of expressing themselves.
I have worked with many Organisations over the past twenty five years, such as Citizens Theatre, Lapidus Scotland, MissMsMrs, Thenue Housing Association and Create Paisley. I also work with Community groups, performance poets, older people, and those recovering from drug and alcohol misuse. Facilitating groups is a pleasure for me.
