I am thrilled to say that, thanks to Hay Festivalβs moral courage in suspending sponsorship from BG this year, agreeing to meet with Fossil Free Books, and committing to rethinking their sponsorship policy going forward, I have accepted their invitation to rejoin the festival.
Can always rely on Jacqui Rose - JP Rose - a writer of sorts to capture the mood. What a beautiful celebration of some incredible writers and illustrators! Yes, such a joy to judge this hugely important award - amazing submissions! - and so very happy for our winner, Hiba Noor Khan! #JhalakPrize

βWhile this yearβs winners are very different in form, style, theme and content, they speak urgently and yet timelessly to a world in turmoil.β - Sunny Singh on #JhalakPrize24 winners theguardian.com/books/article/β¦
A lovely evening spent with awe-inspiring writers. More power to institutions like Jhalak Prize
