Gloves Off by Tyson Fury He presided over quite possibly the greatest sporting comeback ever – a colossally overweight, drug-addicted former champ whose deterioration in physical health was as profound as his plummet in mental health.
Thus, this no-holds-barred tome of bamboozling brilliance, both in the ring and out of it, chronicles the entirety of the Gypsy King’s career to date, from his tempestuous Travelling upbringing, through to the devotion he has to his wife and children.
Grounded yet never ground down, this book is an extension to his previous autobiography, released in January 2021, and worth the read. Published by Penguin Books on November 10th
Friends, Lovers, and the Big
Terrible Thing by Matthew Perry Matthew Perry is the incredible actor that brought to life Chandler Bing in Friends - the funny, witty, and often goofy character that lived across the hall from Rachel and Monica. Almost every one of his scenes had us in stitches, but it wasn’t until the reunion show that many realised Matthew was dealing with some profound struggles.

Light up a Life has always been an uplifting and meaningful way to remember family and friends whilst supporting the care we provide at Beaumond House.
This year, we hope that you will join us as we gather as a community, sharing memories and lighting candles in memory of those loved ones who are no longer with us.
Firstly, we would like to invite you to Light up a Life and make a dedication to a loved one. Dedications are welcome in memory of anyone, not only those with a connection to Beaumond House. When you donate a minimum of £5 per dedication you will be given the opportunity to purchase a limited edition Light up a Life pin badge for an additional £1.
We are also offering personalised feather fi lled baubles for you to hang on your Christmas tree. Each bauble will be handmade, with love, by one of the Day Therapy patients at Beaumond House and costs £5. These can be collected from Beaumond House reception, one of our charity shops (Newark, Collingham and Southwell) or at one of the services.
For the fi rst time, Beaumond House is also giving supporters the opportunity to dedicate a light on a beautiful virtual tree.
Finally, as in previous years, Beaumond House would like to invite you to join us at one of the Light up a Life services which will incorporate readings, songs and time for refl ection and remembrance. You can also hang a personalised tag on the Christmas trees at each of the churches.
Our services are held on:
Monday 5th December
