Pay it Forward
£5
Butcher's Dog regularly gives free copies of the magazine and event tickets to those who need them most: youth groups, individuals, reading groups, and vital social support/educational networks.
We post copies direct to folks experiencing financial crises. This might mean a person is in an emergency, or one-off tight spot. Perhaps this happens regularly because of health, work, caring, or relationship challenges. Or maybe they're from a group which has put them at a major socio-economic disadvantage.
For those who wish to remain anonymous, we send copies to local libraries. This way whole communities benefit.
Here at the Dog, we think everyone deserves to keep up with the latest exceptional poetry from the UK and ROI, and we're proud to share our magazine with all who want to read it, regardless of their background or financial status.
Paying it Forward helps cover the cost to pass this kindness on and bring poetry to new audiences.
Running a poetry magazine is great fun but it also takes a tremendous amount of work. ​We do this because we love poetry. If you do too, please consider making a donation.

The magazine has been unfunded for over a decade. If you'd like to keep us in press, click the logo below to donate.​

We're not just for Christmas.
Help keep us fit as.
