Published again... with Michael Rosen and the Hot Poets

It's a pretty spectacular thing in a poet's life, to spend a week brainstorming the future of the planet, with Michael Rosen and a dozen other top poets from the spoken word-scene...

It's even more sweet to have been accepted into the book they all collaborated on; which will be going into schools across the UK as a resource for National Poetry Day 2026.

I was working as a stage manager for this residential event - bringing top writers and scientists together to inspire some serious work raising climate change awareness in businesses and schools.

The book is a culmination of commissions from writers including Francesca Beard; Valerie Bloom; Jasmine Gardosi; Testament; and many more. It's available to buy here, and it contains my hurriedly written submission about rewilding in the UK using keystone species, to restore biodiversity.
