Hamza had a large family, including several young nieces and nephews. His brother and sister also suffer from a blood disorder, which makes a healthy diet very important.

Today's book is 'A Little Gay History of Wales' by Daryl Leeworthy, published in 2019.

This book is a compilation of the history of LGBTQ+ Wales. It is one of the few books on the subject of Wales and LHDTC+ people (like yesterday's Book of the Day!). Leeworthy focuses on working-class LGBTQ+ history in Wales, for example, sex between men and cross-dressing in Merthyr Tydfil 1908-1915.
