Location: Haywards Heath
Campaign: To encourage victims of bullies to know that life can get better

When I was in school I was bullied by a group of girls who started rumours about me.

 

I ended up being the recipient of nasty text messages and social media posts.

 

The effect this had on my mental health was detrimental as I ended up living with depression for three years and leaving school with no GCSEs.

 

This was when I realised I wanted to have a better life and career and so I turned my life around; now I’m studying to be a police officer.

 

I want to show others in similar situations that life does get better and that there is always light at the end of the tunnel.
