2026 CHARLES CAUSLEY YOUNG PERSON’S POETRY COMPETITION – 11-15

May 22, 2026

11-15 WINNERS OF THIS YEAR'S YOUNG PERSON'S POETRY COMPETITION

Charles Causley’s legacy as an educator and his passion for teaching children the power of writing is at the core of what we do at the Causley Trust.

Our Young Person’s poetry competition is our attempt to carry on this legacy and do our part in assuring children in the UK keep writing and expressing their creativity.

This year’s theme was Family and our young poets did not fail to impress with their delightful responses to the prompt.

Here go the chosen poets in the 11-15 category.

1ST PLACE
‘The Weight of Home’ by Aanya Jain

2ND PLACE
‘The Illusion of Separation’ by Aanya Jain

3RD PLACE
‘Empty Rooms’ by Riddhikaa Vidyakumar

BEST CORNISH POEM
