LOCAL poetry enthusiast, May Simpson, has raised £325 for Northern Ireland Hospice (NIH).

This is the 20th Edition poetry book that May has composed and sold, all in her free time, in order to raise funds for NIH.

This year’s edition ‘Away Beyond the Blue’ consists of 40 poems, and has sold over 200 copies in the local community.
