Bel Mooney at Henley Literary Festival

Writing an advice column for the Daily Mail with six million readers is no easy task – but, with 40 years of journalistic experience, Bel has succeeded superbly. Lifelines collects the best of these insights, while Goodbye Pet looks at the impact of losing an animal in the household. Much of her appeal is down to sharing her own life experiences of grief, forgiveness and joy. It has proved a lifeline for many, so hear Bel share her compassionate and unflinchingly honest words of good counsel.
