COVID SAFETY
Since the risks of the Covid-19 virus are still present, we would like to take what measures we can to make this event as safe as possible. We will be limiting the capacity in the venue, so please book in advance to make sure you can get in. We would ask that you consider taking a lateral flow test before you come to the event, and obviously don't come if it is positive. Similarly, if you have any potential Covid symptoms, or think you've come into contact with someone who might have it, please stay away. We would also ask that you consider wearing a mask where practically possible.

Accessibility info:
There are a small number of steps up to enter the venue; unfortunately they do not currently have ramp access, though they are working to sort it for the future. Once inside, the venue is all level and has accessible toilets. The event will be seated, and some chairs can be moved to accommodate any particular requirements. Children are welcome at our events (though we can't guarantee all poetry will be child-friendly in content). If you have any questions, or any accessibility requirements not covered here which you would like to discuss with us, please do get in touch, and we'll do everything in our power to accommodate you.
