  6. Poems will be published on the St Mary’s website with a number and title.  Each entrant will be deemed to grant St Mary’s Vestry a royalty free non-exclusive licence to publish the material.
  7. The entry fee for each poem submitted is £2 and you can enter as many poems as you like.  Payments can be made direct to St Mary’s bank account, or by cheque made payable to St Mary’s Episcopal Church, Carden Place, Aberdeen or via the PayPal donation facility on our website.
