Britain's everyday heroes
the making of the good society
by Gordon Brown
The good society is dependent not on exceptional people doing extraordinary things occasionally but on all of us doing ordinary things thoughtfully day after day. From volunteering to ethical purchasing, from charitable giving to reducing waste and recycling, the willing commitment of millions in the UK shapes our world and changes lives 24/7. In this book, Gordon Brown tells the stories of 31 everyday heroes - ordinary people whose willing commitment to a cause or a community has informed and inspired him. The stories tell of a real Britain neither flawless nor broken down but caring, innovative, passionate and determined.
