Power of Us

Power of Us is a feel-good story about friendship, told at a gentle pace.

The story begins as Dean is arriving at Stoor Community Centre. He is here to join a community group where he awkwardly meets five people whose welcoming nature encourages him to stay:

Cheryl runs the group and each week tells a short story that has a knack of helping the others in the challenges they are facing.

Emily is a feisty young girl with a passion for nature.

Abdul is a teenage boy who wants to be a scientist.

Kyle is an older man with a light conversational touch.

Florrie lives in a house with a multitude of rescue cats.

Then, almost immediately, the community centre, and the park that surrounds it, comes under threat from development. At the same time, Dean is judged harshly in an article in the local newspaper and becomes reluctant to return to the group and his new friends.

How will Dean's fragile new friendship with the group cope when put under pressure? Will Dean overcome the habits that have led him into loneliness? Will his new friends support him? How do different people from different backgrounds respond to the same problem? Will the community centre and park that have been there for the people of Stoor for so many years survive?
