A short stay in longevity is a life-affirming collection of songs, tunes and poems by writer and musician, Simon Beavis.
Described by one listener as “an epic exploration of the everyday”, it deals with the passage of time, love, loss, regret and finding peace. It captures the resonance of simple events and the importance of living in the present. Part album, part poetry book, this beautifully produced edition includes a CD of 18 original compositions, with music, lyrics and spoken words offset by the atmospheric photography of Alida Bea.

We’ve set a target to raise at least £1,000 for the international charity, Children in Crisis. Initially, £2 from every sale will go directly towards supporting its fantastic work – a proportion that will rise if sales grow. We’ll keep you posted on progress.
Children in Crisis protects and educates children facing the toughest hardships, in countries affected by conflict or political instability. Education improves children’s life chances, unites communities and builds peace. Through adult education and income generation Children in Crisis helps families and communities support their children’s education, helping them to contribute positively to their communities and build their futures.
