Very pleased to be one of the four Scottish Poetry Library's 2021-2022 Poetry Ambassadors, responsible for promoting poetry in the South of Scotland.

Looking forward to working with my fellow ambassadors and SPL over the next year.
The SPL’s Poetry Ambassadors scheme is intended to cover the whole of Scotland, moving beyond the central belt to take in the entire sweep of the country, its people and its languages.
