Since the beginning of May, we’ve been hosting weekly Insta sessions with guests from all over the UK and further afield. These relaxed 30-minute sessions blend performance with insightful conversations from leading and emerging poets.

Next up, we welcome Sophie Sparham on Tuesday 2 March. Sophie is a poet and writer from Derby. She has written commissions for BBC Radio 4, The V&A and The People’s History Museum. She co-hosts the night Word Wise which won Best Spoken Word Night at the 2019 Saboteur Awards. Her latest collection ‘The Man Who Ate 50,000 Weetabix‘ comes out in April on Verve Poetry Press. 

This session will be hosted by Matt Abbott. Our previous sessions are available to stream back in full on our Facebook page, YouTube channel and IGTV channel. Find more information and share the event over on Facebook. Our latest session with Haris Ahmed is available to view below.
