Shine Books have been nominated for The National Diversity Awards 2023, with the founder Jo North up for the Positive Role Model Award for Disability.
Shine Books are an inclusive range of children’s books which raise awareness and normalise conditions such as dyspraxia, ADHD and Tourette’s. Jo North is passionate about taking away the stigma that often comes with them, and she believes that educating children from a young age in this area can have a positive impact on acceptance and understanding across society.
Charities, role models and community heroes will be honoured at the 2023 ceremony showcasing their outstanding devotion to enhancing equality, diversity and inclusion; embracing the excellence of all citizens irrespective of race, faith, religion, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, disability and culture.
Jo North quotes “I feel incredibly honoured to have been nominated for this award. Seeing the other companies and people who have been nominated, it is a huge achievement just to be alongside them in this category.”
