Cheltenham Literature Festival is the world’s longest-running literature festival, leading the way in celebrating the written and spoken word, presenting the best new voices in fiction and poetry alongside literary greats and high-profile speakers.

2024 was the festivals 75th anniversary as well as our first year at the festival hosting our own venue, the Hush, a spiritual space for wellbeing where attendees were welcome to drop in and experience a range of activities, feel the calming effect of breath-work and mindfulness or try their hand at crafts including candle making and Kintsugi.

We absolutely loved being part of Cheltenham Literature Festival in 2024 and can’t wait to be back in 2025. Volunteers will look after the Hush, engage with members of the public in conversation and through the actitivies.
