With around 7,500 entries a year from across from the UK and worldwide, it’s the largest competition of its kind and its importance is widely attested.
Worth knowing: Although the Foyle receives a huge amount of entries, it’s not impossible to win with an innovative and well written and edited poem. Twice over the last few years, young people who’ve attended our South Yorkshire groups have won the Foyle (Georgie Woodhead, Lauren Hollingsworth-Smith, Imogen Cassels 2013, Clare Carlile 2012). There is also a record of the past winning poems on the site to get an idea of what has previously won.
