Description
Beating the odds and turning things around even when all seems hopeless is the story Jay Blades tells in his inspiring memoir, Making It. From his sheltered childhood on a council estate to his experiences with racism and police brutality, Jay reflects on the strength and weakness that have shaped him into the person he is today.
Through his journey, Jay questions the boundaries society places on male vulnerability and how letting himself be nurtured has helped him flourish. With positivity, pragmatism, and kindness, he shares his story of how care and love can mend even the most broken things.
With honesty and vulnerability, Jay shares the details of his life, from his early struggles to his success as the presenter of The Repair Shop. This is a story of resilience, hope, and the power of kindness to transform lives.
