Chantel’s down to earth Yorkshire lass delivery has endeared her to fans as much as her musicianship… Photo: David Randall Chantel Hall Reid, what can I say: I met Chantel during the Covid-19 pandemic when she was inspired to write an uplifting book. Chantel is a prolific reader and a writer with multiple styles to suit a vast range of readers. Imani’s Diary is her first creation, and an excellent book for young people and adults alike, with snapshots of the 90’s giving the readers a nostalgic, hilarious and authentic experience. She does so with a confident vocal range, stellar phrasing and pristine diction. Her guitar parts are an integral part of the arrangements and act like an extra voice to express those feelings beyond her lyrics.” Pete Feenstra writer #author #book #fiction #readers #reader #write #words #publishedauthor #publishinghouse #recommendation #diary #nostalgic #missed #linkedin #business #strategically #january #experience #leader #visionary #admire After training she planned to rejoin her family, who by this time had migrated to New York City. Instead, she met and married her husband and they had two beautiful children, Symone who is Artistic Director of Genesis and Kevin who is an Actor. Allyson chose to practice in midwifery, as she felt it was a great honour and privilege to bring life into the world. She enjoyed a rewarding and enriching career, both in clinical and managerial roles. She lectured extensively, wrote many professional articles, studied up to Masters degree level and became a popular and knowledgeable advocate for women. In 2002, she was awarded an MBE from the Queen for her “outstanding contribution to the development of the midwifery services for women in London”.

she’s forged her own direction. Most of the material may be more than 4 years old, but the band and the material has grown organically.

I had a marvellous time in London yesterday celebrating with my author client Allyson a super special lady who I have worked with for 18months from concept to delivery This year’s awards boast categories specially devoted to those who have gone out of their way to support others during the pandemic.

Both her more introspective moments and the contrasting barn burning solos emotionally project her beyond her lyrical ideas into the stratosphere.” If you work with 13-21 year olds and would like to know more about the work we do, send us a message.You can help keep us on air.

Beer-bellied festival goers will love her of course but I have to say there is more to life than appealing to those old enough to be her Dad, or even grandad.” David Randall
