Welsh poet's prize challenge 
Oct 4 2006 
A WELSH poet will go head-to-head today with Seamus  Heaney for the UK's most 
valuable prize for verse. 
Kate Bingham, whose family originates from South Wales,  will compete against 
the Irish bard in the best collection category of the  Forward Prizes for 
Poetry 2006. 
Mrs Bingham is one of three Welsh poets on the shortlists  - Ian Gregson, 
from Bangor, and Michael Arnold Williams, from Newport, also  nominated. 
The prizes, worth a total of £16,0000, cover three  different categories 
including newcomers, established writers and best single  poem.
