Accessibility Statement: Little Drop of Poison is fully wheelchair accessible, with an accessible toilet on the ground floor.

As it's an open mic, we can't always control the content. Spork! events tend to be fun and upbeat in tone, but occasionally poets will share work that features some challenging themes. Artists are encouraged to give trigger warnings where possible.
