Acknowledgements

It is impossible to thank everyone who has journeyed with me so far and made it possible to get this work off the ground. Nevertheless, I would like to acknowledge the following people:

To Cathy for holding my hand.

To Abigail Wheatcroft for your commitment, enthusiasm and hours of hard work.

To Rebecca Hopwood and Vaccasin at Yoga Point Brixton for your unwavering support and kindness.

To Kate Roncoroni for bringing everything together on this website.

To my friends and colleagues at PACT and Citizens UK for your support, kindness and solidarity and stepping in when I was distracted!

And finally, to my precious family and friends for your love, listening to me for hours, challenging and gently holding me in moments of uncertainty.

I am truly grateful to you all.

Josephine
