Campaign: | To provide support to those who self-harm |
Having been bullied in the past, I know what it’s like to feel low and alone.
I began to self-harm as a way to cope with the emotional pain I was experiencing.
Thanks to the help of my family and friends, I'm much better now, but I know people who’ve gone through similar experiences.
Hoping to help others like me find the support they need, I’ve helped to create a Fixers film which shows how speaking about your problems can actually help.
Hopefully young people will see it and understand they’re not alone.
A special thank you to Lauren Culshaw for helping for me with my Fix.
Stephen Johnson helped facilitate my project and allowed us to film at the college.
