'SUCH AN INCREDIBLE READ' ZOE BALL 'ONE OF THE YEAR'S MOST
INSPIRING BOOKS' HOLLY WILLOUGHBY With a foreword by 2021 Strictly
Come Dancing winner Rose Ayling-Ellis, and including chapters on
Rose and her mum, the 3 Dads Walking, Martin Hibbert, Paul and Nick
Harvey, the heroes of Fishmongers' Hall, and Jimi Olubunmi-Adewole.
Dan Walker is back, determined to keep shining a light on the
kindness, compassion and selflessness which continue to
characterise so many people and their actions right across the
country. As one of the UK's leading journalists, Dan has made it
his life work to focus on people who often act as the catalysts for
change: the unheralded champions who frequently go without getting
the recognition they deserve. The new book from the author of the
bestselling Remarkable People contains a totally fresh batch of
humble heroes whose actions, bravery and determination have helped
shape their communities. Standing on the Shoulders asks who are
these little-known marvels and what makes them tick? What do they
have in common? What can we all learn from them? Is there something
special in the chain of events? What does it take to make a lasting
impact on others? History can be cruel and forgetful to those who
don't shout about their own success or good deeds, but Standing on
the Shoulders is a beautifully-written and illuminating celebration
of ordinary people and the extraordinary things they do. It is also
a timely reminder of the goodness and positivity that drives us
forward during challenging times.
