About
Jay Hulme is an award winning transgender poet, speaker and theologian. Alongside his writing, and his duties as Churchwarden at an 1100+ year old church, he teaches poetry in schools, offers poetry writing workshops, performs sensitivity reads, gives lectures and keynote speeches, and preaches regularly in churches and cathedrals across the country, and occasionally worldwide. He’s also known for his ability to gain access to some of the hidden (and scarily high up) parts of churches and cathedrals, and his willingness to share those adventures with the world through photography.
With a special interest in queer rights and theology, Jay’s work engages particularly with ideas of faith, place, and identity, with many of his poetry books for adults being published by one the the UK’s foremost Christian publishers.
With books available for children, teens, and adults, Jay is a versatile writer, with the ability to engage a broad range of people with his work, both on the page and off, through entertaining and thought provoking talks, performances, lectures, sermons, and regular media appearances.
