Join the Poetry Society

Thank you for your interest in joining the Poetry Society, one of Britain's most dynamic arts organisations representing British poetry both nationally and internationally. We have nearly 4000 members worldwide and publish the leading poetry magazine, Poetry Review.

With innovative education and commissioning programmes and a packed calendar of performances, readings and competitions, the Poetry Society champions poetry for all ages. As well as the Foyle Young Poets of the Year Award, the Poetry Society runs the National Poetry Competition, one of the world's longest-running and most prestigious prizes for an individual poem, and the Ted Hughes Award for New Work in Poetry - the prize founded by Carol Ann Duffy from her honorarium as Poet Laureate.
