The 2016 Melita Hume Poetry Prize is open for entries of original, full-length collections by young poets.
The winner will be published by Eyewear Publishing and will receive £1,500.
The prize, which is intended to support younger emerging poets through difficult times, is open to poets under 35 who have not published a full collection and are not under contract to do so. Poets submitting should be resident in the UK or Ireland.
