From next week I will be joining Poetry By Heart as their new Poetry and Digital Content Editor.

Poetry By Heart is England’s national poetry speaking competition, funded by the Department of Education. I’ve been working with PBH on-and-off since 2020 when I met Julie, one of the Co-Directors, while she was finishing up her DPhil at Homerton College where I was Poet-in-Residence.

I will be working on the timeline anthologies and overseeing a number of PBH publications – I can’t wait to get cracking!
