Reuben

Name: Reuben Bearman
Age: 18
Year of the Fix: 2016
Location: Deal, Kent
Campaign: To encourage young people with mental health issues to talk about their problems

After seeing a friend of mine deal with depression, I know how mental health issues can damage people’s lives.

 

She’d become really quiet whenever she was down and didn’t let people know how she was feeling.

 

I found that just listening gave her a sense that she wasn’t alone.

 

She is doing a lot better now and I feel there needs to be more of a dialogue around the issue of mental health in young people.

 

With Fixers, my team and I have created a poster campaign to encourage more people to open up about their feelings.

 

Hopefully, it will inspire others to talk about their problems, which I believe is the key towards recovery.

I would like to thank Sarah Linden and Alexander Mercer for helping me with this Fix.

East Kent College

Julian Streader supported our Fix by helping to facilitate the project.
