Poem-A-Thon for the Poetry Society · 18 May 2019

Founded in 1909, The Poetry Society is the leading voice for poets and poetry in the UK. We champion poetry for all ages, developing generations of new writers through our magazine The Poetry Review, talent development schemes, commissions, and innovative work with schools and young people.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. Please sponsor me. I am one of the 60 poets performing at the Poem-A-Thon at the Poetry Cafe, Covent Garden, on Saturday 18th May.

Poem-A-Thon will be non stop from 12pm-10pm (I am on in the evening 9pm approx), with each poet performing for 8mins. Event details are on https://poetrysociety.org.uk/event/poemathon/ and I hope you can drop in.

The aim of Poem-A-Thon is to raise much needed funds for The Poetry Society and each of the poets will be asking friends and family to support the arts charity through sponsorship. Money raised will help maintain the development and upkeep of The Poetry Society premises in Covent Garden and their mission more generally, advocating for poetry in education and beyond... 

Thank you for reading. I hope you can support (and come along maybe).
