We are a mutually supportive group of enthusiastic poets who are committed to improving our skills and taking poetry into the local community. Our aim is to encourage and promote the enjoyment of writing poetry, to all age groups. Our annual programme includes twelve monthly meetings on the last Monday evening of the month, between 7.30 and 10 p.m. They are held in Dorking in the Tower Room, Mole Valley Council, Pippbrook.

The evening is divided into two parts:

Some meetings, such as those held during the Mole Valley annual Arts Alive Festival, are open to members of the public - workshops on creative writing, Poetry Pub events.

The annual subscription is £18.

If you would like to join the group, or require further information, please contact the Membership Secretary.
