SUMMARY:Non-Fiction Author Richard Negus: Words From the Hedge
DESCRIPTION:Author Talk by Richard Negus discussing non fiction book WORDS FROM THE HEDGE at Red Lion Books \nHedges are as old as civilisation and as emblematic of the British countryside as chalk streams\, hay meadows and oak trees. But unlike woodland and rivers\, farmland hedges remain on the periphery of the public consciousness\, often going unnoticed and almost always underappreciated. \nJoin us for a morning of enlightening\, engaging and entertaining conversation with professional hedgelayer\, conservationist\, writer and author\, Richard Negus. \nIn his book ‘WORDS FROM THE HEDGE – A Hedgelayer’s View of the Countryside’\, Richard takes us on a journey that reveals these ribbons of thorn and barb are so much more than mere decoration or boundary markers. They are essential for much-needed wildlife recovery. Each hedge is a testament to generations of human skill and labour\, requiring ongoing maintenance to survive and thrive. \nRichard has been heralded as “the hedgerow’s one true champion” by celebrated Countryside Writer John Lewis-Stempel\, and his book praised for being “joyful and illuminating” and “an important\, funny and passionate defence of the British countryside”. \nRichard Negus is a former soldier and professional horseman. He now lays hedges for a living and is recognised as one of the country’s leading exponents and practitioners of hedgerow management and rejuvenation. \nHe lives in Suffolk\, co-hosts a weekly podcast – Countryslide – covering British rural life and work\, and writes for publications including The Daily Telegraph\, The Critic and Scribehound.

SUMMARY:Author event: Lisa Jackson Still Running After All These Years
DESCRIPTION:Lisa will talk about her memoir STILL RUNNING AFTER ALL THESE TEARS: A tale of love\, loss and laughter\, which describes one woman’s determination to survive unbearable grief – and get back into running – one step at a time. \nLisa Jackson is a hypnotherapist\, running writer and Runner’s World columnist\, and the author of the best-selling books Your Pace or Mine? and Running Made Easy. Lisa is also Women’s Running’s hypnotherapy expert\, and her work has been published in The Guardian\, The Independent\, Psychologies\, Red\, Prima\, Top Santé\, Healthy and Cosmopolitan. She is a veteran of over 100 marathons and two 56-mile ultramarathons. Lisa haspresented talks at numerous events including The National Running Show and RunFestRun.  \nFeeling utterly broken as she navigated bereavements\, Lisa turned to an old friend that had helped her through many tough times before: running. But whereas it had previously been a source of solace\, fun and companionship\, before long a debilitating injury meant she lost her running mojo\, too. Aiming to complete her 109th marathon\, Lisa set out to rekindle her love affair with running – and to build a new life. Still Running After All These Tears is a survival manual for the broken-hearted\, and for anyone struggling with major life challenges. It’s a celebration of the redemptive power of running\, and the life-enhancing lessons it can teach us. \nAbove all\, it’s a meditation on how to thrive in the face of trauma\, what makes a good death and\, most importantly\, how to lead a joyous\, meaningful life.
