A warm welcome

What a wonderfully warm welcome I received from the Rising Stars Ladies’ Group yesterday when I arrived to give my illustrated talk on Ladies’ Mile!
They told me afterwards how much they’d enjoyed the story — and I must say, I enjoyed sharing it with them every bit as much. To my delight, they not only bought a staggering number of books, but also made a generous donation — all in recognition of Victoria Hughes, the compassionate lavatory attendant whose remarkable life inspired the book.
​
Every penny will go towards helping to refurbish her very special ladies’ loo on Stoke Road — a fitting tribute to a woman whose kindness and dignity touched so many.

If your group would like to hear Victoria’s extraordinary story, I’d be delighted to bring my illustrated talk to you. You can find out more by contacting me at [email protected] or get in touch via the BristolRead Books page.
