Finders Keepers

Finders Keepers is a collaboration between poet Harry Man and artist and illustrator Sophie Gainsley
and that examines Britain’s vanishing wildlife.

Poems from the project will be hung and geocached in public spaces across the country
to memorialise these lost voices and to celebrate
some of the success stories of species brought back from the brink
and the conservation of British woodlands, hedgerows, rivers and other wild habitats.

A pamphlet of poems from the project is available from Sidekick Books.

Our Map

As poems are added, this is where we’ll be publishing the GPS co-ordinates.
Over time the poems will biodegrade. If you find a poem before the end of 2017
then get in touch with a photo and we will post it up here, and send you a copy of the book.
