Caboodle

You're invited to our flash poetry competition for National Poetry Day!

Do you scribble sonnets in your spare time? Are you partial to a bit of rhyme? Or do you want to start writing but don’t know how?

To celebrate National Poetry Day on 4th October, we're giving one lucky Caboodler the chance to win a gorgeous £100 personalised National Book Token featuring their poem, as judged by poets Kate Clanchy and Joseph Coelho.

The winner will also get a box of new poetry worth £300, including The Forward Book of Poetry 2019, which brings together the best contemporary poetry in the UK.

Quick! Send us your poem before midnight on 7th October.
