The Poetry Society at The National Trust

Osterley Park and HouseFor the Poetry Society's Centenary, the London South-West Stanza successfully collaborated with Osterley Park, a beautiful National Trust property in Hounslow, where we organised poetry workshops for families (encompassing young readers and their grandparents) and also a poetry competition for different age groups.

I was inspired to write a whole series of poems about sumptuous Osterley Park myself - both for adults and children.
