Ideas can be powerful. This book company was one such idea. Here's how it started.

After discovering the Do Lectures - a small magical event held each year on a family farm in west Wales - and watching a talk online back in 2011, our publisher Miranda sent an email to the founders. With a 20-year career in book publishing under her belt, she wanted to know if they had ever considered publishing books by their incredible speakers. A response came back and, a year or so later, a new independent publishing house came into being.

The intention was to publish ‘books that inspire action’. Beautifully designed concise guides that encourage us to reach our potential, to improve our lives, and the world around us. Over the last decade, we hope that in some small way, our books have achieved this.

Written by the experts, pioneers and change makers who have shared their stories and ideas at the Do Lectures, each book focuses on the 'doing' rather than the background theory. From sourdough to storytelling, branding to breathwork, photography to fermenting, meditation to making, the collection of 50+ guidebooks has something for everyone.

Do Books are printed on FSC-certified paper - the mark of responsible forestry. A royalty from each copy sold goes back into the Do Lectures to help achieve its aim of positive change.
