We're thrilled to announce the release of "Beyond The Ordinary—Discover the Power of Creative and Neurodiverse Women: A Self-Help Guide" by Mandy Nicholson!

This compelling collection features the untold stories of 30 remarkable women, including Kelly Weston (Director), and Emma Dearling (a seller in our wonderful shop), who turn adversity into triumph, showcasing the resilience and uniqueness of the creative and neurodiverse.

Mandy launches the book at Social Impact Live on October 11th. Initial launch will be an e-book, with hardcopies being available in the shops soon after.
