What we are about
The operation is a real split personality
Firstly, we have been commissioning, writing and editing books
for a wide range of UK and International publishers, notably the
Joseph Rowntree Foundation, the Chartered Institute of Housing,
Russell House Publishing and the LSE.
In addition, and the focus of much of this website, we have published
some innovative and challenging books focusing on alternative
lifestyles, creative work with young people, Travellers, the counter
culture, and crime and social work.
Many of the books have celebrated the lives and cultures of people
around the world, for example in Australia, Zambia, Uganda and
South Africa and across Europe and the United States.
Books that largely fulfil the motto:
Books to Feed the Mind and Spirit
Formed by Alan Dearling, who has written and co-ordinated a lot
of the publications, Enabler publications has a number of separate
strands of work. It even connects with Alan's involvement on copyright
issues at the Authors' Licensing & Collecting Society and
the Copyright Licensing Agency. 
To Alan they are strongly connected, but may not seem so to anyone
else out there!
Enabler publications and training services have just about come
full circle. They started out in Burnmouth, a tiny Scottish Borders
fishing village, then on a narrow boat on the canal system, and
for twelve years, operating from a small office, affectionately
known as 'The Shed' in Lyme Regis, Dorset. From 2003 to 2006 operations
continued from the top floor in a Victorian terraced house in
Teignmouth, South Devon.
And now they're back in Scotland in the Berwickshire fishing port
of Eyemouth at:
45 Haymon's Cove,
Eyemouth,
Berwickshire,
Scotland
