Winter Poetry Treasure Hunt - December 2024

Think of it like a poetry advent calendar, combined with a treasure hunt. And a way to discover new poets and revisit old favourites.

Fill your inbox (or someone else's if you gift a ticket) with poems this December.

How does it work?

Each day you receive an email, introducing you to the work of a particular poet. There are links to audio recordings and videos. And a link to further reading.

There is also a clue… You need to hunt in the work of the poet to find the answer. You can do this from wherever you are in the world, as long as you can get online. 

If you miss a day, you can catch up whenever you like.

Like all treasure, you’ll need to guard your answers carefully and put them all together at the end of the month to solve the final puzzle.

It costs £20 to take part and its a fundraiser for our children’s poetry competition (which is free to enter for all young writers).

If you would like to gift someone else a ticket, then once you’ve bought it please email us with the details of the person you would like registered for the treasure hunt.

So why not join up with other poetry lovers, discover new writers, revisit old favourites, and get a smidge competitive about it all. Happy hunting!
