Hillary Rodham Clinton, the former US Secretary of State and 2016 Presidential Candidate, will take part virtually in the first Ripples of Hope Festival, taking place 15-19 September 2021 across Greater Manchester.

Poet Laureate Simon Armitage has brought together 30 poets from around the world to create a powerful new body of work, A Poetic Declaration, which will be unveiled at three events as part of the Ripples Of Hope Festival. A snippet of his speech gives an idea of its uplift: "It is from numberless diverse acts of courage and belief that human history is shaped. Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring those ripples build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance."
