Cholmondeley Award

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Cholmondeley (/ˈtʃʌmli/ CHUM-lee) Award is an annual award for poetry given by the Society of Authors in the United Kingdom. Awards honour distinguished poets, from a fund endowed by the late Dowager Marchioness of Cholmondeley in 1966. Since 1991 the award has been made to four poets each year, to the total value of £8000.
