We asked poets at different stages of
their careers to share tips they’ve found useful in their

My British Museum blog The Power of Poetry offers creative prompts for adults who want to talk to young people about contested histories.

If you haven't seen the Hew Locke exhibition it's highly recommended - free entry on Fridays.
