Enfield Poets

Enfield Poets provide an opportunity for local poets to perform their work in a supportive and stimulating environment, as part of a monthly series of readings featuring guest poets.

Since the closure of the community rooms on the first floor at the Dugdale, Enfield Poets have been holding their monthly meetings online. However, they are looking for a new venue in order to resume in-person sessions.

Entries are now invited for the Enfield Poets' Poetry Competition 2023
