  The story of how a boy came to be infected with blood borne viruses, and in spite of multiple death sentences, lived to become the world's first ever LGBTQ+ Ambassador for Haemophilia.
  'Faced daily with my own mortality, I chose to live fabulously—each of my fifty-five years has been full of love, laughter, adventure… and feather boas.'
  Mark Ward is the founder of Haemosexual—an online support and information resource championing equality, education and better healthcare for everyone with a bleeding disorder, no matter what their sexual orientation. Mark's battle to secure a public enquiry into the Infected Blood Scandal—which is finally due to report in May—has led him to places he never expected, and to meet people he never dreamt of.
  'Mark is a survivor, literally, of the HIV visited upon him through contaminated blood, but rather than merely revelling in the simple fact of life, he has heroically dedicated himself to ensuring life remains possible for others.'—Sam Stein KC
  This forthright (and fabulous) memoir, recounts the journey of an unlikely lad from Letchworth who grows up to be a renowned and respected rights campaigner. With foreword by Sam Stein KC.
  'This is a remarkable book—brave, funny and honest. Ward is a gifted writer with a profound story to tell and he does it beautifully.' — Peter Moffat
  'This is a story of one of the worst cover ups of our time, and the author's part in the fight to expose it, but it is also the story of a human being who managed to live a life filled with joy despite the mistreatment he endured. An inspirational tale.' — Elkan Abrahamson, Director of Covid Enquiry Department, Jackson Lees Law Group
  'This is a profound and important book from a courageous individual who has lived through the darkest episode of medical history, and contributed to the resolution for the thousands impacted in the UK' — Brian O'Mahony, CEO of Irish Haemophilia Society

  Where the Earth Meets the Sky -...

  Antarctica is a land of extremes. But while its hurricane force winds, tooth-breaking cold, and resident penguins have long been iconic, the perspective of a practicing female scientist is all but absent from modern day Antarctic accounts. Where the Earth Meets the Sky fills that gap.Louise and her campmate David Ainley—one of the greatest Antarctic scientists on the planet—live in a world defined by hostile weather, breathtaking beauty, a continuous parade of avian visitors, and an occasional human visitor. There she explores the lingering grief that has followed the untimely death of her sister, and presents penguins as a window into how climate change and other environmental impacts are altering what has been one of the most untouched corners of the globe.While penguins and the awe-inspiring landscapes they inhabit provide the thread that runs through this story, a central theme is how the world's most unforgiving environment has shaped the psyches of Antarctica’s human visitors, past and present.Experiencing the Antarctic wildernesses has the potential to heal the human psyche and, perhaps, to give us the optimism to reimagine our relationship with the natural world.
