Hi, I recently entered a poetry competition organised by the museum. I am happy to say that I won the competition with my piece entitled “Early morning at Ladycross”.
Unfortunately, after sending in the poem I inadvertantly destroyed my original copy!!!
If anyone can help me to get a copy I would be very very grateful!!!
