Togetherness Poetry Challenge 2024

Calling aspiring poets from all ages, faiths, ethnicities and backgrounds!

Loneliness and social polarisation are fracturing our democratic societies and impeding on our ability to connect with others. Now, more than ever, we desperately need to foster a strong sense of community. That is why our partners at Civil Society Consulting and EIFA are running a national poetry challenge encouraging people across the UK to write a poem under the theme of Togetherness.

The project emerged from the wish to hear people’s voices, celebrate diversity, encourage collaboration, break isolation and inspire reflection.

All poems will be published on their website. Some selected poems will go into an anthology, developed in partnership with literary partners, and shared via a podcast with you reading, recording and discussing your poem.

If you have a way with words, and want to help support us in our mission to foster diverse and inclusive communities, submit your poem now! There is even the chance to compete for a cash prize.

Find out more about the Steps to Togetherness project, and how to apply here.
