Natasha Tingle is a disabled writer and performer centred around Wigan, Bolton and Manchester. She loves the power and playfulness of words. She creates visual poetry that leans heavily into metaphor. She especially seeks to connect with spoken word audiences, to inspire them or make them think by speaking truth. She loves to share her quirky inner world.

Sheba Arts says “Natasha is a great poet and highly skilled facilitator whose warm and vibrant energy brings out the best in those around her.”

She has led and facilitated a number of community writing groups over the years as well as one-off workshops, including working with children and young people in the community and in schools, marginalised and vulnerable adult groups, neurodivergent people and others. She ran her own night online during Covid extended shielding, and in person. She likes to meet the needs she sees in the community around her. She runs Spilt Ink Writers weekly in Bolton.

She has a poetry collection, Open Book: Ink In The Rips.
