Meet the Author: Penny Lancaster (12A Live)

Thursday 4 Dec 20257:30pm

It looks like she's lived a charmed life - a loving upbringing, marrying a superstar rock singer, children, strong friendships, and lately a successful career in television.


But in her new book ‘Someone Like Me’, Penny Lancaster reveals how she was bullied at school, struggled with her studies because of undiagnosed dyslexia and, as she made her way for herself as a model, experienced a harrowing sexual assault.


Determined, though, always to see the positive in life, Penny cultivated skills and talents to enable her to achieve and maintain her independence, training as a fitness instructor and then a photographer, and she’s used her struggles to inform and help others.


What’s more, since marrying and making a family with Rod Stewart, Penny has embraced every opportunity offered to her. She's competed on 'Strictly Come Dancing', 'Celebrity MasterChef', 'Who Wants to be a Millionaire'. And she is a guest panellist on 'Loose Women'.


Using this profile she is a campaigner and ambassador for a multitude of charities, speaks widely and passionately about menopause issues and volunteers as a Special Constable with the City of London Police.


She is a warm, engaging and inspiring speaker and we're thrilled that she's joining us at The Riverside in Woodbridge for this special evening event. She will be in conversation with Catherine Larner and signing copies of her book.


Tickets are £20 to include a signed copy of her book 'Someone Like Me' (RRP £20). One further ticket can be purchased for £12 (without the book).


Please book at The Riverside in person or on the website www.theriverside.co.uk and be sure to include your name with your booking so that we can allocate your book on the night.
