NAME YOUR BRAVE
WHO IS YOUR BRAVE?
Bravery comes in many forms. It can be courage in the face of extraordinary circumstances, strength through the hardest of times, or simply being there when someone needs you the most.
We want to hear about the people who inspire you. Simply visit the campaign on Facebook and comment on our Name Your Brave campaign post, or submit your nomination privately on our website. The name of your Brave may feature in the next edition of our book, and if so they - or where appropriate, their family - will also receive a signed copy by Oliver and Daniel.
NOMINATIONS CLOSE AT 8PM ON SUNDAY 8TH NOVEMBER 2026
Writings
Reflections. Statements. Stories that deserve to be shared.
Words have the power to comfort, challenge, inspire and create change.
This collection brings together personal reflections, public statements, essays and articles written throughout our journey. Some explore grief and bereavement, while others address public safety, advocacy, mental health, accountability and the experiences that continue to shape our work.
Whether responding to significant events, sharing personal reflections or speaking on issues that matter, each piece is written with honesty, compassion and a commitment to informing, supporting and inspiring others.
We invite you to explore these writings at your own pace and hope that, within these pages, you find understanding, encouragement and the reassurance that even in life's most difficult moments, hope and purpose can be found.
