A project by researchers at The University of Nottingham has seen poetry displayed in prominent public spaces across Nottingham.

Words for Walls’ was created so that local writers and young people could have the chance of having their own words displayed in public spaces across the city.

After successfully attracting interest from hundreds of people from across the city, the final result saw the chosen poems placed on public transport, at various libraries across Nottingham city and in many other locations including; Nottingham Contemporary, on University park, in the Creative Quarter at Sneinton Market and in pubs and cafes throughout the city.
