The book tells the story of how a young boy came to be infected with blood borne viruses, and in spite of multiple death sentences, lived to become the world’s first ever LGBTQ+ Ambassador for Haemophilia.
‘This is a remarkable book—brave, funny and honest.’—Peter Moffatt
Mark Ward is the founder of Haemosexual—an online support and information resource championing equality, education and better healthcare for everyone with a bleeding disorder, no matter what their sexual orientation. Mark’s battle to secure a public enquiry into the Infected Blood Scandal has led him to places he never expected, and to meet people he never dreamt of. This forthright (and fabulous) memoir recounts the journey of an unlikely lad from Letchworth who grows up to be a renowned and respected equality rights campaigner. It will be published in paperback, ebook and audiobook with foreword by Sam Stein KC.
‘This is a story of one of the worst cover ups of our time, and the author’s part in the fight to expose it, but it is also the story of a human being who managed to live a life filled with joy despite the mistreatment he endured. An inspirational tale.’—Elkan Abrahamson, Director of Covid Enquiry Department, Jackson Lees Law Group
