About Me |

| We've been around for 24 years. Over this time we've worked with loads of poets and writers such as Jean 'Binta' Breeze, Francesca Beard, Beyonder, Malika Booker, BREIS, Charlie Dark, Roger Robinson, Jacob Sam-la Rose, Zena Edwards, Lucy English, Mat Fraser, John Hegley, Jonzi D, Patrick Neate, Lemn Sissay, TY, Luke Wright, Ross Sutherland and Benjamin Zephaniah to drop just a few names. We're one of Englands leading poetry organisations (not that we want to big up ourself too much). Our work covers outreach projects in schools, prisons and community groups. The other side of the organisation deals with the shows. We've co-ordinators based in SW, NW, NE and midlands of England which makes us truly national. In short our focus is on working with emerging artists and commissions and produces new work. So ... there you have it.
