Kids Bedtime book to help the NHS


RicB

Recommended Posts

Hello! At the end of last year, my dad (who was a self-published author) sadly passed away from Covid and like many others I saw what the NHS has to go through, and I decided I wanted to help.


Having loved reading bedtime stories to my own children, I was inspired to publish my very own first children?s bedtime book. It?s a book about lockdown life told through the eyes of a young girl with a message of hope for the future. Printed in the UK, the book is both dedicated to my dad and the NHS - so much so that I will donate ?1 for every copy sold to NHS Charities Together (charity no: 1186569). A magazine has agreed to publish a small piece on it in the ?What We?re Loving Section? so it?s very exciting so I hope we can raise some good funds. I hope to do a book signing at some point in Dulwich Park too, when normality resumes.


But for now, my book is called ?Oh No, Not Another Lockdown!? (yes we can all relate right? 😉) and it is a funny rhyming bedtime book for toddlers and young children. It?s available for ?5.99 exclusively at https://www.rbbooks.co.uk/ with ?1 of that being donated, so it?s a very worthy cause.


I hope (as I actually lived in ED for many years, and now just a stone?s throw away) that the good people of ED will help support the cause. And tomorrow is World Book Day, so happy book day too!


There are more details on the website, but I?ve attached a few teaser pics, some never been seen before including one which all parents who are home schooling will appreciate.


So thank you very much


Regards

    • I see that in Nottinghamshire the local NHS Area Prescribing Committee is recommending that prescriptions should be for generic methylphenidate, giving their pharmacists the option of supplying any brand (or presumably a generic product). https://www.nottsapc.nhs.uk/media/bw5df5pu/methylphenidate-pil.pdf It might be worth checking with your local pharmacist(s) to see whether this will help them if, as I suppose would be necessary, your GP issues a replacement prescription. I'll have a look around our local NHS websites now, to see if I can find anything there.  Nottingham, btw, provide more information, nominally for clinicians, at https://www.nottsapc.nhs.uk/media/vwxjkaxa/adhd-medicines-supply-advice.pdf.  And at https://www.nottsapc.nhs.uk/adhd-shortages/.
