Mansfield Born & Bred

You're at rock bottom now, the only way is back up!

Royalties will go to Framework for all the wonderful work they do in helping the homeless www.frameworkha.org

Meet Mary White and follow her amazing journey from tomboy escapades to acclaimed crusader for the homeless.
She travels from a warring family, through the army, to a disastrous marriage and her own homelessness. Rescued by an old friend she rebuilds a life now dedicated to working for the homeless of Mansfield, spearheading the development of a uniquely effective service with her second husband David. Then, in her 60s, she starts to foster rejected young people...
Told in her own down-to-earth voice Mary brings us stories of triumph and tragedy, rich humour, rescued lives and betrayal, as she works with the vulnerable members of our society.
Revive memories of a forgotten Mansfield of the 40s and 50s and see how one woman's extraordinary compassion and energy made a difference to hundreds of lives - a true Mansfield Hero!
