Nobody left behind book launch thank you's

 

** Thank yous for ‘Nobody left behind***

Performed to a crowd of 40 people at Chorlton Cum Hardy's Dulicmer, last night was a great success for Amanda and the launch of her book in aid of the Mustard Tree ‘Nobody left behind’.

The book is described as "A collection of poetry, prose and non-fiction inspired by the cost-of-living crisis. Edited by Amanda Nicholson, with writing by over 30 poets and authors from around the UK. This anthology was produced to raise awareness of the experiences you rarely see in the mainstream media. All the profits go to Mustard Tree to support the important work they do. Some of the pieces use dark humour to highlight the struggles people face, while others are more direct. They may not be easy to read, but perhaps they will inspire us all to do what little we can to help. Then, maybe we can make some small improvements to each other’s lives instead of judging people."

The book can be bought on Amazon at: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Nobody-Left-Behind-Printed-Anthology-ebook/dp/B0BNK23NR9
