In Care and Incredible - Book launch

Join us at the Somerville College Chapel on August 11, 2026 at 4:00-7.00 PM (BST) for a 4.30pm start for an inspiring celebration of this amazing children's book

Many of the most inspiring people in the world -- from Steve Jobs to Mary Seacole - didn't always have the simplest of childhoods. From record-breaking athletes and award-winning writers, to activists, inventors, and leaders who have shaped history, learn about the stories of 30 incredible people who also spent some time in foster care, lived with relatives or who were adopted.

Joining Rosie Canning, are authors Lisa Cherry OBE - Squirrel’s Search for Love, Sally Bayley - Worm in the Bud: A Fable, and Annie Skinner - Behind Closed Doors. All with experience of care and all truly awesome. Discover their powerful stories and celebrate their achievements in this unique book launch.

Don't miss this chance to connect with remarkable voices from the care community and be part of something truly special!

Tickets start at £6.76 for FREE admission with tea or coffee & biscuit. Other options include book and Cream Tea! Or even Afternoon Tea in the lovely Somerville College Chapel. A book launch with a difference!
