Calli Marie Brighton

Calli Marie Brighton

Name: Calli Marie Brighton
Age: 25
Year of the Fix: 2018
Location: Birmingham, UK
Campaign: To highlight the impact of abuse

I was taken into care at the age of seven.

 

For the next fourteen years, I moved from home to home, never staying anywhere for longer than 18 months.

 

I have created a music video based on my own experiences of abuse, for my song 'straight up now it hurts.'

 

My project is about raising awareness of abuse, and encouraging victims to be confident enough to speak out.
