VERVE FOR LIFE: YOU BELONG HERE.

For the first time, we’re opening VERVE FOR LIFE to a limited group of supporters who want to stay connected to VERVE—always.

We’re opening VERVE FOR LIFE to a limited group of 100 Lifetime Members. Join with a single £100 payment and stay part of our community for life.

This membership is our way of honouring the people who believe in what we’re building: a festival that celebrates poetry in all its forms, a community that is welcoming, caring, accessible, and creatively alive. Your one-off contribution helps us stay sustainable in uncertain times while continuing to offer free and low-cost poetry opportunities across Birmingham and beyond.

As a Lifetime Member, you’ll receive:

• 10% off festival tickets, workshops, competitions & books—for life
• A one-week head start on festival and workshop booking
• Exclusive offers and members’ perks throughout the year
• Twice-yearly members’ meetings
• A numbered membership card and exclusive VERVE pin badge
• And most of all: a lifelong place in our VERVE community

Membership opens 1st December 2025 and is strictly limited to 100 people. Once they’re gone, they’re gone.

If VERVE has ever given you energy, creative connection, a sense of home, or a doorway into poetry—you’re warmly invited to become part of VERVE FOR LIFE.

Thank you for being here. We’re nothing without you.
