An Unmissable Evening with Claire Mitchell KC & Zoe Venditozzi

We are honoured to host a powerful evening with Claire Mitchell KC and Zoe Venditozzi, taking place just one week after the launch of their long-anticipated book, How to Kill a Witch: A Guide for the Patriarchy.

This timely and thought-provoking event invites you to explore one of the darkest chapters in Scottish history—the persecution of those accused of witchcraft. With sharp wit, emotional depth, and meticulous research, Claire and Zoe reveal the chilling process from accusation to execution and the enduring patriarchal forces behind these historic injustices.

As co-founders of the nationally recognised Witches of Scotland campaign, they have been instrumental in securing a legal pardon and public apology for the thousands of women and men who suffered under Scotland’s witch trials. Their new book is already sparking important conversations—and now you have the opportunity to hear directly from the authors, engage in live discussion, and reflect on a legacy too long ignored.

Tickets include the option to purchase a copy of the book, perfect for those wishing to take this powerful story home and continue the conversation.
