Book for an event
Hazel Sheffield is a business reporter and investigative journalist. Her work can be found in national and international publications including the Guardian, Follow the Money and the Financial Times. Before going freelance, she covered derivatives for Euromoney and worked as the business editor of the Independent. She left the Independent in the summer of 2016 to start a grant-funded project called farnearer.org, documenting self-organising communities and economic alternatives in the UK. After a decade of reporting, that work has come together as Frontierlands, her first book. She lives with her family in Hastings.
Books by Hazel Sheffield
A book that documents for the first time the people and places in the UK preparing for the unfolding climate catastrophe - not stories of stockpiling or billionaires with private islands, but real people learning how to reconnect with forgotten landscapes, buildings and ultimately one another, often in surprising ways.
