Campaign: | To help young people understand what is healthy and unhealthy in a relationship |
For young people at school, sex and relationship education normally just means sex education.
There’s a lot of emphasis on teaching the biological side, but not so much on the emotional elements – and these are crucial.
Relationships should be nurturing and loving, and not involve constant critique of what you’re wearing and where you’re going.
With Fixers, I want to help young people spot the signs of unhealthy behaviour early.
Hopefully this will prevent any problems escalating into something more serious.
Here is a list of Fixers helping me with my Fix:
Alice Hall | Alisha Morgan |
Ashley Reeves | Beckii Lammond |
Benjamin Hardy-Phillips | Beth Pickering |
Charlotte Holder | Courtney Wyatt |
Ellie Christopher | Eloise Chaplin |
Georgina Ellis | Jess Devine |
Jess Knight | Justice Chillingworth |
Kayleigh Knight | Maria Francis |
Matthew Fisher | Rhyann Watton |
Sam Atherton | Sam Foulder-Hughes |
