ABOUT

This book was designed and project managed by myself for The Lieutenants Office of West Yorkshire as Bradford City's contribution to the Queen's Diamond Jubilee celebration in 2012, sponsored by Emerald Group Publishing.

The scale of the project was vast - involving working with Bradford Council to commission artwork and poems from primary schools across West Oxfordshire for inclusion in this tome that was a showcase of the creative abilities of young people in the county.

A vast amount of artwork was supplied hard-copy format in big sacks from multiple schools and needed sorting through and digitising.

The finished book was published as a hard-copy - velvet-covered, with foil embossing and encased in a foiled and embossed presentation box. With 30 soft-copies also being produced - 1 for each school. One copy went to Buckingham Palace as a gift to HM Queen Elizabeth II, with a selection of school children, another is on display at Bradford City Hall.
