About Us

At It’s a Jungle Publishing, we believe books are more than words on a page; they are tools for change, reflection, and connection. We are an independent UK publisher dedicated to producing titles that make a genuine difference, whether in the boardroom, on the front line of public services, or in the conversations we have about society and culture.

Our name reflects our mission. The world of organisations, communities, and social change can often feel like a jungle; complex, challenging, and sometimes overwhelming. Our role is to cut through the noise, provide clarity, and publish books that help readers navigate complexity with confidence.

Our Mission and Values

At It’s a Jungle Publishing, our mission is to publish books that inspire action, provoke reflection, and create lasting impact. We exist to give both professionals and general readers the tools and insights they need to navigate the complexities of organisations, communities, and society.

Through our two imprints — Impact360 Press for housing and public service transformation, and Skelton Books for cultural and social commentary, we provide frameworks, ideas, and stories that matter. Every title we release is designed to cut through complexity, challenge assumptions, and empower readers to think differently and act with confidence.

The best ideas are those that can be understood, shared, and applied. Our books translate complexity into accessible, practical knowledge.

Impact
We publish with purpose. Whether through professional frameworks or social commentary, our titles are designed to make a measurable difference in the real world.

Integrity
We prioritise substance over fashion. Every book we publish is grounded in authenticity, evidence, and lived experience.

Reflection
We value the power of reflection and conversation. Our books encourage readers to pause, consider, and engage with different perspectives.

Growth
