An independent publishing house that shares stories with purpose to:
EMPOWER, EDUCATE, ENTERTAIN
Each story raises awareness and gives back to charitable causes that can drive positive change.
Stories are how we have always made sense of the world. Now more than ever, as we evolve and navigate a new era in which we coexist with technology, stories are fundamental to what makes us human.
Our narratives help nurture true friendship through Buddyhood, creating a sense of belonging even in the most unsettling times. Our purpose is to be a buddy to our readers to help them feel supported so that they can thrive
Harleen and Andrew are The Buddyhood’s founders and authors.
“We are parents, who believe, like all parents, that our children, and every child for that matter, deserves a better world. Post the pandemic, society has become fragmented and emotional dysregulation, compounded with social media, is causing a generational divide and mental health crisis.
It’s not fair and we want to do something about it.
We want to champion children and parents because it’s not easy and everyone is trying their hardest. We care and our books hope to bring people together, whilst sharing the warmth of a hug; something that we would have appreciated when times were tough."

I am delighted to be part of The Buddyhood and to share my publishing and education experience with Harleen, Andrew, and the rest of the team. As a husband and father of three daughters, I am extremely supportive of the vision of The Buddyhood, creating stories with purpose to achieve authenticity and positivity in the world, something I would have loved to share with my children as they grew up and which has resonance in their adult life today. An exciting venture, and a timely one.
We are excited to welcome Nicola who will be joining the Buddyhood in June 2025.
The Buddyhood matters to me because it speaks to something deeper than business; it’s about reshaping how young people see themselves and their place in the world. It’s a brand with a message that cuts through noise, driven by real values and creative courage.
The Buddyhood drew me in because it’s different; it’s not just a brand, it’s a movement with purpose. This project taps into something more meaningful and it's rare to work on something that speaks to the next generation and challenges the norms around social media and identity.
The Buddyhood is important to me because it brings people together around shared values of connection, belonging, and purpose. Being part of this community has inspired me to help build a more meaningful and positive future alongside others who care deeply about making a difference.
The Buddyhood is a powerful tool for helping people of all ages understand and navigate their emotions. Through the power of storytelling, it creates space for reflection, connection, and emotional growth - showing us that our feelings are valid and that we’re not alone in them.
Stories move and change us. Working with Buddyhood allows me to help bring purpose to those young people who deserve better messages and information about themselves and the world around them.
