Name: Nikita Bawden
Age: 17
Year of the Fix: 2015
Location: Great Torrington, Devon
Campaign: To show young people experiencing mental health issues they’re not alone

I’ve experienced mental health issues in the past. I was bullied, both at school and online.  

At the time, I didn’t really talk to anyone, which I regret now. It was a horrible feeling.


With Fixers, I’m working on a short film to encourage young people who are facing similar struggles to speak out.


I hope to take it into schools, youth clubs and colleges to show others my age that they’re not alone.


I want them to know that there is help available if they need it.

Here is a list of Fixers helping me with this Fix:

 

Alex Brown

Charlotte Rogers

Kirstyn Smith

Megan Gibb

Nancy Pennington

Rachel Bailey

Julie Brough, Devon Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service
Julie Brough from the Devon Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service supports my project. She agreed to be interviewed to appear in my broadcast piece.
