Great conversation with Sir Drummond Bone at @natlibscot last night re: “Treasures: Byron's life in letters”youtube.com/live/Acuy0sB2H… via @YouTube
A pleasure to be returning to @britishlibrary for our annual Wordsworth Lecture. This year we’re part of a fantastic Byron 'all-dayer' marking the 200th anniversary of the poet's death.
A HUGE thank you to everyone for your support! This means so much to us, and the wonderful people that we work with

There’s some debate about whether we’ve achieved ‘a host’, but if you share Wordsworth’s passion for the daffodil we have both native and ceramic versions aplenty.
The healing power of Grasmere Lovely review of @erutterwriter in The Spectator @WordsworthGras @CuratorWT @pollyrowena @likewinterblue @WTdirector @GrasmereWI spectator.co.uk/article/the-he…
‘Up! Up! my friend, and quit your books’ A gloriously sunny day to be fair, but not really the most helpful advice from Wordsworth when you’re judging @LakesBookAwards
Amused to find this splendidly passive-aggressive note in the otherwise resolutely scholarly Transactions of the Wordsworth Society in 1885.
For #WorldPoetryDay2024 lines from Wordsworth's great poem, 'Tintern Abbey' 'On that best portion of a good man's life; His little, nameless, unremembered acts Of kindness and of love.' Through @BigGive we aim to bring more kindness, love, and poetry, into people's lives.

What a pleasure to welcome Lady Borwick, Chair of the @VisitEngland Advisory Board, and Nicola Said on their visit to Cumbria. Big thank you to @cumbriatourism for including us, and to @lakelandarts, @tbtlake and @Windermereboats for a great discussion
To only slightly misquote Wordsworth: “What happy fortune were it here to Big Give”. Double your money and help us bring some much needed poetry into people’s lives

Fantastic - well done Elizabeth. I’m so pleased for you!
5 years since I was Poet in Residence at @WordsworthGras! While there, I worked on poems that became #WhiteGhosts - and a story that went on to be shortlisted for the @DesperateLit Prize & win the @AestheticaMag Prize. So whatever thing you’re considering applying for: do it!
Can’t wait for this!
To Westminster for a memorial service for Peter Brooke, former Culture Secretary, and a Trustee, Fellow and dedicated supporter of the Wordsworth Trust, following in the footsteps of his great grandfather, who started it all back in 1891
Copies of the Environmental Poet of the Year pamphlet, by title holder @JaneBurn14 are now available online from @WordsworthGras at the below link + also the British Library shop, link in next post 1/2 museumshops.uk/product/a-thou… @HelenMort @tommustill @JohnAitchison1
Ending the day with the official opening of a brilliant exhibition in our Community Gallery. The Diary of Charles Fletcher was researched by Will Clark, working with our Curator Melissa. Huge thanks to @Curating4Change and @ace_national for making this possible!

We did it. The whole school, ages 3 to 11, climbed to the top of Loughrigg Fell in aid of @stmaryshospice. There is still time to sponsor us. Click through to our just giving page to donate. ⬇️ Thank you. justgiving.com/page/grasmere-…
And they’re off. Whole school ascent of Loughrigg Fell in support of @stmaryshospice . Lovely to have so many helpers and @GrasmereWI with us.
