We're a group of friends living in the North West (UK) who get together regularly to write poetry and perform our work. We also organise and host a poetry reading twice a year to showcase the work of local poets. We've all been writing for several years, mainly poetry but also novels, short stories, children's fiction and radio plays. Despite our close association, our subject matter and styles are very different. We have no “house style” and our only agenda is to develop and promote our poetry and the work of local writers.

Held for the first time at the almost revamped Storey Building which is coming along in leaps and bounds to prove itself as an exciting, welcoming venue, the evening began with the usual aplomb from compere Rita Ray.

superb climax to an excellent evening of poetry.
