Frances Turner

Born in the forties into a musical family.

Loved to sing, singing folk music with my sister in my early teens,

Ran a folk club with four others in the early sixties, where I booked the artists.

Never lost my love of folk music.

Have always written poetry of sorts since a very early age.

Retired from mental health social work some 17 years ago and moved to Broadstairs with my husband Geoff.

I have attended Broadstairs folk week for well over 50 years so felt at home here straight away.

I have been going to Poets Breakfast since its inception, developing friendships with many of the poets that regularly attend.
