This heart-wrenching, heartwarming, and true story following the history of a family in Wales is one of the most important books ever written.

I am a proud supporter of our National Health Service, which has shown yet again what an important and valued institution it is in the UK. As the first NHS baby through to her work today, Aneira's story shows her dedication and passion for protecting this phenomenal service for future generations.

KEIR STARMER

This book speaks from the heart about a passion to preserve our NHS - as powerful a symbol of goodness as we have. Nye's own experience and that of her family represents our deep need to fight for a society where all are equal in worth and value. And how the NHS stands fast as a symbol of equality, of fairness, and of compassion for all.

MICHAEL SHEEN

Aneira has written a memoir that is a deeply personal, richly researched, and incredibly timely tribute to Britain's commitment to providing free and equal healthcare to all.
