Good news! Our Poetry Adjudication evening is back on with the wonderful Lindsey Holland. It will be taking place on the 14th July, usual time, usual place. All poets (and indeed non-poets) are invited to come partake and hear the winning entries and Lindsey’s own discussion.
Sorry all, the adjudication for the 16th has had to to be cancelled for actually quite good reasons. We do still plan to hold it in a couple of weeks, so keep eyes peeled. Winners shall be being informed shortly.
