Ian McMillan - English poet, journalist, playwright, and broadcaster

Thanks so much for organising that brilliant day the Barnsley Academy; that booklet they did was really good. They're working really hard to get the best out of the young people there, and you can quote me on that!

All the best - Ian McMillan
