Listen to the winners and runners-up entries from the first Love Letters to London writing competition organised by The London Society.


There were nearly 500 entries from all ages and from all around the globe, writing on the theme of \"recovery and resilience\", a celebration of the capital as it emerged from lockdowns.


We’re biased, but we believe London is the greatest city in the world. It is the nation’s capital, but woven from hundreds of separate communities; the economic powerhouse of the UK with a richly diverse demographic. It has an amazing history, but is constantly evolving; it offers world class art, music, theatre and other live performances. It is ‘home’ to nine million people but attracts dozens of millions more each year as visitors. Love Letters to London was our way of trying to celebrate this wonderful, glorious, infuriating city.


The pieces are read by Laura Adams and Tim Barron
