Help us change the face of poetry from 19th - 26th March with Big Give Week! donate.biggive.org/campaign/a...
'Poetry matters...because it's language at its keenest and its craftiest'.
Here's Simon Armitage, the UK's Poet Laureate, talking about why poetry matters, the importance of celebrating poetry through awards, and how the definition of poetry has widened over time.
Forward Arts Foundation hosts the Forward Prizes for Poetry and National Poetry Day, the UK's biggest annual celebration of poetry.
We are trying to change the face of poetry, supporting poets at every stage of their career: from school to stage.
