In support of the Inspire Foundation and to help raise funds and awareness for the prevention of suicide and improvement of mental health and well being in men, the “Man Book” was launched today. Put together by the very inspiring Mark Pollard and Gavin Heaton, the book titled The Perfect Gift for a Man – 30 Stories about Reinventing Manhood, focuses on the stories of 30 contributors on topics such as respect, fragility and loss. Although I didn’t manage to write anything for the book, I was honoured to play a part through my contribution as a photographer. 2 images, destined to spend the rest of their lives on my hard drive, were given life and purpose again through use on the front cover and within the book!

Please buy this perfect gift for the men in your life.
Your images certainly have made a huge impact on the book, Mark. The creativity and power that you capture speaks volumes about the nature of “being a man”.
Looks like something worth reading. I’m curious to find out if this is focused on an age group and is it just for men?
