Holland Park Press invites you to write a poem (in Dutch or English) about a neighbourhood that’s important to you. It could be the place you grew up in, the area you live in now, or a neighbourhood which influenced your life in a particular way. It could well be a place you visited on holiday, or city that made a big impression on you, or equally well a place that has blighted your life ever since. It could be a house, a café, school or a park, a neighbourhood, a motorway, railway station, any place that defines the neighbourhood.
The author of the winning poem will receive £100 plus the winning poem will be published in Holland Park Press’ online magazine.
