Sponsored Prizes
H G Powell entered the
NWC Open Poetry Competition regularly in the 1990s, and several of his poems
were included in the Anthologies produced each
year.
Mr Powell's children have kindly sponsored a prize in his memory. The
winner of this prize will be a poem on the theme of The Family.
John Coleridge is the author of 3 collections of poems, which have been
published by Meniscus.
John was the Open Poetry

adjudicators.
