Write on the Tyne

Last Friday, Write on the Tyne celebrated the release of DUTY by Jeff Stephenson. A brilliant night was had for a brilliant book. Already a #1 bestseller on Amazon, DUTY documents Jeff’s childhood in North Shields, his life as a young Royal Marine, including conflict in the Falklands and Northern Ireland, as well as his service of over twenty-five years with Tyne and Wear Fire and Rescue Service. Alongside his dedication to his town and country, this powerful memoir covers family, love, loss, and ever-lasting friendship.

A true hero, Jeff now works as a personal trainer, with a focus on mental health and has used mindset, resilience, and determination throughout his life. Inspirational, poignant, humourous, and an important part of history.
