The winners of this year's Waltham Forest Poetry Competition will be announced at the Walthamstow Trades Hall - including the National, Local, Young Poet, as well as the winner of the funniest poem. The theme of this year's competition is on the theme of Play.

There will also be an open mic section for those who wish to share their work on the night, and readings from Steve White of the Protest Family and this year's judge Niall O'Sullivan.
