Campaign: | To raise awareness of the effects of bullying on people with disabilities |
I was bullied at school for having a disability. It made me reluctant to attend and I felt hurt and lonely.
It wasn’t until I took the step of telling my teachers what was happening that the bullying stopped.
I’m at college now and am enjoying life.
With Fixers, I want to help stamp out the bullying experienced by young people with disabilities.
I want to encourage anyone who sees it happening not just to feel sorry for someone but to step in and stand up to it.
