The Foyle Young Poets of the Year Award is an opportunity for any young poet aged 11-17 to accelerate their writing career. Since it began 15 years ago the Award has kick-started the career of some of today's most exciting new voices, including this year's judge Helen Mort, a highly successful poet whose next collection is to be published by Chatto & Windus. With entries from over 7,200 young people last year across from the UK and worldwide, it is the largest competition of its kind and its importance is widely attested.
There's still time to enter! For more information and to send your work.
