Illustrated Encouragement

The Encouragement Manifesto emerged as a collection of writings based on interpretations of the values we had captured in early-2020. These words have added layers to our thoughts as fresh interpretations bring lived experience to the ‘library of positivity’ as it was called recently. We had just been making notes for ourselves about asking photographers or illustrators to have a go at interpreting the principles. Imagine our total surprise and delight when Simon Heath unexpectedly gifted us a stunning set of illustrations, one for each of the values. Such generosity of spirit. Everything - and more - that we hoped the Manifesto would become.
