The Rosemary McLeish Poetry Prize winners and full longlist of writers will be announced on Friday at an event to celebrate Rosemary's life at Medway River Lit at Sun Pier House in Chatham. 

​

The prize which is awarded every two years, takes an ecological theme. In 2024 it was won by Connor Sansby for his poem 'Marine Snow'. (Connor pictured above, at the award ceremony in Rochester Library, 2024.)
