Alan Magee

I am a poet living with my family in Belfast, Northern Ireland. I am a teacher, who has worked with a full range of children for many years. I have had poems published in The Seamus Heaney anthologies, ‘Compass’ and ‘Manifest’, published by the Community Arts Partnership, NI. I have also had poems published by Apricot Press. I regularly read my poems at Purely Poetry NI events, where my work is very well-received. I write on a wide variety of themes around shared human experiences, nature and mental health, with sensitivity and insight. I enjoy travelling abroad, hill walking in the Mournes and exploring beautiful Ireland. I am an enthusiast of jazz, theatre and the wider Arts. I include these interests in many of my poems.
