The Tour
The point of writing this book was not to become an author, but to shift the story. I want to celebrate and support Citizens doing the work in their local communities, helping them see what they're part of, and just how important their work is - and I want to help those in positions of power to understand what they can do to break themselves, their organisations, and our society out of the Consumer Story.
So really, the work is only just beginning. I'm travelling round the country (and beyond) with the aim of bringing a bit of a boost to the brilliant things that are happening everywhere, and also getting inside charities, businesses and government bodies to help them open themselves up and step into this bigger story of humanity.
