About this event

Applications are now open for Worcestershire’s Young Poet Laureate 2021, run by Severn Arts and Worcestershire County Council. The competition is open to three age categories: 8 – 11, 12 – 15 and 16 – 18.

If you are aged 12 - 15 years old and interested in entering the competition but first want to develop your writing skills, learn more about poetry, meet other young writers and receive some tips, ideas, and inspiration from a professional poet, this is the workshop for you.

Join Emma Purshouse, freelance writer, performance poet and comedienne. Emma is the Poet Laureate for the City of Wolverhampton. Emma performs her work nationally, and is a published author (writing both for adults and children) and poetry slam champion. She has a degree in English, and an MA in creative writing, enjoys writing flash fiction and has won and been shortlisted for both local and national competitions - https://emmapurshouse.co.uk/
