The Chanctonbury Cup
Chanctonbury Writers received a grant of money 'for the furthering of poetry in West Sussex'. This was a donation from the Muse and Music Society in memory of Jim Johnston, who did much to encourage poetry in the Horsham area.
After some discussion it was decided to purchase the 'Chanctonbury Cup', to be awarded annually to the poet whose entry was judged best from a West Sussex resident in competitions run by the Slipstream Poets, whose co-operation we gratefully acknowledge.
For further details see www.slipstream-poets.co.uk
This site was set up with a portion of the grant and the winning poems for 2011 and 2010 appear under Members' work 2011 and 2010a.
Winner 2011: Dunes - Jean Harvey
Winner 2010: Night Crossing - Jean Harvey
