    Planet in Peril Prompt: Thinking like an animal

    I ran an eco-poetry workshop for 15 to 18-year-olds, focusing on poetry prompts and how we can write about various different aspects of climate change. I realised that despite my target audience, these prompts may be enjoyable for all to experiment with! Some aspects of the workshop can be found below. Our impact on animals: Based on the "Dynasties" series, narrated by David Attenborough! These are quickfire prompts, so don't overthink your responses! Prompt 1: Poisoned Meat

    Introducing Commissioned Poet, Helen Mort!

    I am delighted to say that the former Derbyshire Poet Laureate, Helen Mort, will be part of the Planet in Peril project.

I have always been a fan of Helen's poetry and it is wonderful to be working with her. ​"Helen Mort is among the brightest stars in the sparkling new constellation of young British poets" - Carol Ann Duffy (Image from Helen Mort's website) More Ab

    Writing Prompt: How can we write about our oceans?

    With submissions opening for the Planet in Peril competition opening on January 28, I wanted to introduce one of the charities which the anthology will fundraise for. This blog post will look at the work of WWF, and two of their projects which I feel very strongly about.

As WWF says on their website, 'The trouble is we think we have time,' and the reality
