This week we are taking a trip to Birmingham to celebrate with the crew from Uni_Slam. Uni_Slam is a huge event that takes place yearly in The Birmingham Hippodrome. Each year University students come together to share their poems in a competition that celebrates the diversity of poetry in this country. On the same weekend the Uni_Slam team invites to the festival some of the Poetry Collectives that hold some of the best emerging poets of the scene. I am honoured to give a podcast stage to some of those collectives.
