Support the 2019 Derby UniSlam Team

UniSlam is the UK national university poetry slam & summit bringing together teams of poets from university communities across the UK & Ireland to take part in a comprehensive programme of development workshops and to compete in one of the most exciting slams in the British spoken word calendar!

For the second year, Derby US Publishing Society has worked alongside the Union to put together a team to represent the students and the university.

This year, the slam will be held in Birmingham, we need to raise funds to cover costs for our accommodation and travel, additionally, for the first time, we will be able to bring non-competing poets to the slam.  

We have already raised £250 towards costs (thanks Derby Union) and are asking for your donations to help fundraise the rest. 

This is for team Derby!


More about UniSlam.

UniSlam uplifts the voices and stories of young people, providing a platform for them to be heard on a national level. We champion the importance of creativity in learning and the rights of young people. We offer creative and professional development to the next generation of literary talent through our workshops, talks, and masterclasses led by industry experts and professional artists.

UniSlam not only supports the talented poets coming up through universities but also works with young people who experience various barriers to accessing literature to engage them with poetry in an inspiring way.
