Split the Lark is a group of people dedicated to stimulating,
promoting and invigorating the growing interest in poetry and
creative writing as a valuable means of communication. We encourage
young and old, beginners and advanced, able-bodied and disabled to
perform their work alongside professional poets and offer them
friendly support and advice. We organize Readings by acclaimed
poets; run competitions with prizes that reward and encourage the
development of poetry skills. We also provide high quality
workshops and readings (by published poets dedicated to the revival
of poetry), for primary schools that aim to increase childrens
poetry skills and help them to develop their innate
creativity.
