'Ellie'

Name: 'Ellie'
Age: 21
Year of the Fix: 2017
Location: Aldershot, Hampshire
Campaign: To show how drug use can be a cry for help

I started smoking weed when I was about 15. My mum and dad had split up and my Grandma had died. I was in a really bad place, I didn’t understand what I was feeling and I was suppressing it with drugs. 

 

As I got older I found the weed wasn’t working anymore, so I moved on to things like mephedrone. It got to a point where I was taking drugs every day.

 

I've made a film with Fixers and I hope it makes people aware of what the effects of taking drugs will be and give them some insight into what can happen.

 

If you carry on eventually you will lose everything and end up with nothing.

The following Fixers helped me with this Fix: 

 

Matt Turner

Adam Podobas

Liam Stuthridge

Maisie Webber

Zoe Laken

Jane Louise Price

Gareth Woodford

Matthew James Turner

Tom Cappleman Lynes

Becca Thomas

Lauren Shaw

Adam Davey

Darcy Price

Lawrence Allen

Andy Thomas

William Hendry Chrystal

Bonnie Lou Bull

Ryan Evan

The Blagrave Trust

 

The Blagrave Trust is supporting Fixers to work with a number of their partner charities in Hampshire, Berkshire, Sussex and Wiltshire to give young people a voice.
