Essential Lines: 12 exceptional stories from the Covid-19 front line
Teréga shines a light on local people and their commitment to their communities
“Essential Lines” are the key lines that support our society, and which were put rudely to the test by the Covid-19 pandemic. Carers, refuse collectors, farmers, builders, checkout staff, or ordinary active, committed members of the public, all stepped forward to hold those lines. This book is a way of highlighting the commitment of men and women in our regions in the South West, and the inspiring community initiatives that emerged during that health crisis.
Through the twelve eyewitness accounts, this book pays tribute to the local people who decided to take action for the common good. They provide proof that, when faced with real needs, energy and initiative can be brilliantly harnessed for the good of society.
Essential Lines is a collective community book, published by Débats Publics. You can buy it or order it from your local bookshop.
