It was the year of the inaugural Batley Festival where Mark Griffin decided to put on a Batley Poetry Reading. It was to fill the empty Reference Room in Batley Library for a couple of hours. The audience consisted of The Yorkshire Dialect Group, the Gujarati Writers Forum and a few local poets.\r\rEventually, the group of people who gathered there on Festival Day became known as the Batley Poets and it grew to become a place for local poets to share the words and sentences that would otherwise have gone unnoticed.\rOur aim throughout the years has remained that same. We want to share, listen and appreciate the different dialects, styles and languages of this millennia old form of literature. We want to highlight the words, sentences and verses that may otherwise have gone unnoticed and be left to gather dust on a forgotten shelf in the corner of a forgotten room. We want to promote our love of poetry and the poets that might never be heard but who have something to say.\r" } ] } ] ```
