Carers UK has launched their 2025 Poetry Competition.
The theme for poems is ‘caring, family and community’ and prizes are being offered for 1st, 2nd and 3rd, plus a Carers UK member prize. The judge for this year’s competition is Cheryl Moskowitz – a writer, poet, creative translator, educator and former carer.
A Share and Learn session is being held on Thursday 20 February 2025 to help participants prepare their poems. Unpaid carers can join this creative writing class, led by Fiona and Susan from Open Book, by registering here: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/EMa8k4jkTZ2XPAInJAr8DQ#/registration
