Germaine Hypher is an award winning poet, a mother, a writer and craftivist.

Germaine has been chronically ill for decades, and is largely bed-bound.

During a childhood, where she was often too unwell to attend school, Germaine has been reliant on carers over many decades, Germaine has been able to return to a sense of meaning and purpose through her poetry, writing and crafting.

Her new book CRAFTING A PATH THROUGH ILLNESS is available:

- now for preorder in the UK from: Amazon and Waterstones

- from all good booksellers from: April 17th 2025.
