In partnership with Alarms & Excursions and Kirkdale Bookshop, Sydenham Arts’ second annual competition once again provides a platform for writers local and national to share their work with us. This year’s Sydenham Arts Festival brings you the best of emerging talent whilst giving a nod to the most inspirational people in our society. They are looking for stories about our unsung heroes and heroines, and here is your chance to give us their stories through poetry in any style, up to a maximum of forty lines, under the theme Heroes & Heroines.
