Script Haven

Script Haven was opened in August 2023, primarily to support indie authors and publishers, and provide a safe space for everyone in the community, whether they be readers, writers, or just in need of a space to simply be. Founder Leena Batchelor is a former Worcestershire Poet Laureate (2020-21) and Spoken Word artist, and has a number of published collections. Script Haven plays host to several creative events each week, as well as community groups and workshops, and has become a much-loved space in the heart of historic Worcester, being shortlisted for Independent Bookshop of the Year 2026.
