Proper Christmas does what it says on the tin, capturing the perfectly imperfect family Christmases of the late 70s and early 80s in an instant sing-a-long radio-friendly Christmas classic like the festive hits of yesteryear, channelling The Krackpots' childhood favourites Chas and Dave, vintage Madness and Slade. The identity of the band behind The Krackpots, a mystery group with several top 10 hits and millions of streams, is a closely guarded secret, and an intriguing mystery, a bit like Banksy. Supported by a hilarious, heartwarming puppet video (coming soon) and a massive social media campaign, Proper Christmas is set to become the surprise hit of Christmas 2023. Proper Christmas is available to Download and Stream on all platforms from 8th December 2023. It is released on Official Kulture records. For details see http://properchristmas.info TRIGGER WARNING.

Reach Out For Mental Health Podcast ep36

Special guest: Maff Potts - Founder of Camerados About Maff and Camerados

Camerados is a new social movement of people going through tough times who through mutual aid want people to get the two essentials: Connection and Purpose.

Maff and his colleagues set up Camerados in 2015 to work with and support people who the existing system have failed. With a global reach from the UK to the USA, Camerados is working in locations as diverse as colleges, prisons, hospitals, libraries, football stadia.

Camarados puts people in charge of their own solutions through Mutual Aid – helping people who are not necessarily friends to self-organise to support each other through tough times. The main focus right now for the movement is to see communities set up Public Living rooms – a place to go on a tough day or when you’re lonely to help others and get connection and purpose.

Maff has been instrumental in creating culture change in homelessness nationally in variety of roles. He ran the Government's programme to modernise homeless centres, writing the policy and committing £170m. Whilst there he also co-created a social enterprise competition with the Big Issue and PwC which launched 34 new social businesses.

Maff has also worked front line and ran the largest homeless services in the country for The Salvation Army as well as being CEO of award winning organization “People Can” which used asset based methods across homelessness, criminal justice, domestic violence and addiction services.

Maff’s best story though is setting up a homeless shelter in the World’s biggest building for Christmas, the millennium dome, for charity Crisis.

Review

I literally could not put this book down - it should be read in homes, schools, prisons, rehab facilities, everywhere. - Jonathan Mantle, bestselling writer.


There's a point in this deep and compelling story where Rosen says he felt as if he were observing the conversation he's describing from the third person perspective. And that's how reading this superbly written tome hit me; I felt as if I were in every scene with him, a silent and invisible, yet viscerally present witness to the depths of darkness and depravity of a life of crime and addiction, but also right alongside Rosen as he experiences a sublime spiritual awakening and begins the lifelong journey of accepting, understanding, and loving himself. This is one man's story of adventure, misadventure, suffering, redemption, and ultimately, finding meaning in the sometimes painfully ugly, sometimes divinely beautiful, but always interesting and exciting world which he (and indeed, we) inhabit. I'm looking forward to reading more from this talented, insightful, and wise gentleman. Bravo, Mr. Rosen, BRAVO!!! - Martin Munro - Artist New York


A truly great book, a story of not only drug addiction but also the strength of the human spirit, told with humour and honesty. - Dave


Fantastic read, and an amazing story, couldn't put the book down, great from beginning to end.�� - Micky


A brilliant, awe inspiring story, beautifully written, and straight from the heart.

With smatterings of black humour, this book is emotionally charged and truly thought provoking.

A must read message of hope for those suffering with, or affected by, the pain of addiction. - Chris


I couldn't put this down. If I didn't know it was a true story I would have believed it was fiction. It's gritty, heartbreaking, inspiring and so much more. It left me with so much respect and admiration for the author. I felt the book was so raw - totally honest, I could almost feel his pain. To come from a life of criminality and addiction that thankfully I have only seen on tv or in films, and to turn his life completely around is awe inspiring. What a strength of character and determination. What also comes across is his compassion and humility. Anyone who is at rock bottom should read this and see you can get your life back if you are truly determined. Actually everyone should read it. It's a fascinating book. Best book I've read in a very long time. - Deborah



Wow - what an amazing book - it is raw and powerful but so inspiring . It is very well written - a real page turner. It is one of those books that will stay with you long after you have finished it . Would highly recommend. by Debra Knowler
