Since the launch of Hedgehog Poetry Press, their main focus has been upon creating a home for poets that will let them see their work published as beautifully as possible. This is aimed at first collections and the magazines, but also to represent more experienced poets.

This competition aims to find a collection that the Press will publish showcasing the best of a poet’s career to date. This may be the traditional ‘Greatest Hits’ where the poet has had a number of collections already, or it may be drawn from a career of magazine or anthology publications that for whatever reason hasn’t culminated yet in a full collection.

The winner will be published by The Hedgehog Poetry Press and receive 100 copies of their collection.
