Even if everything were taken from you, you'd still have the stories that mattered and the poetry that had moved you. With power to change, the written word can quicken the heart and lay bare feeling and experience. On the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty, John Amaechi, motivational speaker and political activist, shares poems and prose which demand dignity for those enduring the insecurity, exclusion and voicelessness associated with poverty. These works are often full of hope, at times angry, but always inspirational. This event is in support of Amnesty International.

This event is taking place at St Ann's Church.
