What the charity does
Our democratic motto ‘Turn up, tune in, take part’ holds as true as ever as we run our free poetry workshops in local schools and the community to ensure local engagement in the annual poetry festival, and invite poets of every background and stage of their writing – from beginners to the renowned. We especially encourage the participation of younger poets, poets on low incomes and from disadvantaged groups, and will be doing our best – as funding permits – to support them.

Why there's no Clarity Score yet
The Clarity Score is computed from full financial filing history. The Wee Gaitherin is on the official register but outside the detailed-filing group we currently score (or awaiting its first filings), so we show its official register record instead of a rating. Its score appears automatically once enough filing data exists — never by payment. How scoring works
