We see the back of a young girl standing on the stage at Shakespeare's Globe Theatre. She is wearing a denim jacket and her arms are outstretched.

Julie Blake, co-founder of Poetry By Heart, talks about the benefits of learning poetry, the joys of performance, and the Poetry By Heart national poetry speaking competition
