A COLLEGE student has won a national writing competition for her poem about a world without Covid-19. Barton Peveril Sixth Form College student Abby Butler is the winner of this year’s national Young Writers Competition. The competition asks 11-18 year old students to enter a thought-provoking piece of poetry with the winning students having their work published in the competition’s annual anthology. The prompt for this year’s competition was ‘imagine.’ Abby, who was previously a student at The Henry Beaufort School in Winchester, explored this by imagining a world without coronavirus and reminiscing about normal life prior to the pandemic.
