Come down the travelators, exit Sainsbury's, turn right and follow the pedestrianised walkway to Crown Walk and turn right - and Coles will be right in front of you. You don't need to shop in Sainsbury's to get the free parking!

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 the unheralded champions who frequently go without getting the recognition they deserve.Rose is obviously quite prominent in the book & does the foreword so there is a great friendship between Rose & Dan obviously. He really admires her & looks up to her. It's not necessary to have read the first book, Remarkable People to get the most from this one. Dan does revisit a few people mentioned in the first book with an update on their lives since he last spoke to them and how they are progressing either personally with a particular cause. Thank you for the summaries everybody. If you can please let us know about the Nadiya chapter please I don’t want to spoil it for anyone who seemingly hasn’t read it - I just wanted to discuss it with people who had and their thoughts on it!

Some (not all) of the stories are tragic and just so saddening but overall these are stories of optimism and hope and are uplifting and inspiring and show amazing strength of character. The subject of forgiveness in the face of such awful atrocity has its own chapter with Dan talking to people about their religious beliefs and why they have chosen to forgive rather than live a life of bitterness and hate. Why he agree to do Strictly that year and the challenge of keeping it secret (top tip - don't search for YouTube ballroom dance videos on the family PC as your kids will work it out!)The new audiobook from the author of the best-selling Remarkable People contains a totally fresh batch of humble heroes whose actions, bravery and determination have helped shape their communities.
