Location: Moray, Scotland
Campaign: To show bullies the impact of their behaviour

I know what it’s like to be bullied. It’s an awful feeling and you start to believe you’re totally alone.

 

Even when I’d tell my tormentors to stop, they would carry on as if I didn’t exist.

 

Unfortunately I’m not the only one. There are others with similar experiences to mine.

 

With Fixers, I’m campaigning to show bullies how their actions can affect other people.

 

It’s about time these individuals realised that what they’re doing is wrong. Bullying isn’t a joke and can ruin lives.

Here is a list of Fixers helping with my Fix:

 

Debbie MacGillivray

Gemma McPhee

Scott Crichton

 

 

 

July 2014

Here is some feedback we have received on our Fixers campaign:

 

'Great video guys! So true and shows the effects of bullying well.'

'Great campaign - will make a big difference to many.'

'Fantastic, well done everyone!'

'Please stop bullying! Too many people get hurt.'
