Author, writer and campaigner for runaways, children in care, homelessness and human connection.
Still finding my way in this great thing we call life.

Is there anyone that actually gives a s***???
Anyone?
Or do I just know the world watches me being eaten off slowly?
Not the reality I thought I lived in that's for sure!!
Madness!!!!!

Wishing you all a merry Christmas and best wishes for 2024.

Solihull Children's home manager!
Maybe worth looking under a microscope with this one.
Well done to S. T. O. P and Charles Angels on this one.

Great talk with @Suziethorpe_ a while back at what was almost the start of my journey with the Poems From a Runaway book. Huge thanks to @mandbfostering in Cambridge for making it happen.

When children are moved around the care system miles away from home.

This was a lovely part of not only the story in Poems From a Runaway, but a great journey whilst having published it. I found the family that took me in off the streets when I was a kid!

Have you ever heard my song 'Think Beautiful'?
No? Are you mad?

@rickygervais I think it might have been this...don't remember the cover but track list is familiar.

Got it from a charity shop when about 13.

[Mad Busker @FractalMoon1]

For someone who's told his story on the radio several times and has clearly put in the work an had support from those with genuine influence, how the heck have so few people really got behind me?

@JGordonBramer Yes. For better or for worse

[Mad Busker @FractalMoon1]

@UMUnderdog Not this year new, but few have heard it.
No cut edits in this either. Live... Sort of.

I tell you what, it's a mad experience this is. The struggle has taught me a lot mind, but it's a crazy world and I'm like 'Hey, why u people don't get behind me?'. #BenLife #authors #mentalhealth

@MayorofLondon Well said. Sports, art and culture and the general feeling of pride and progression are essential for young people to feel truly connected with the community around them. As a former street kid from a disadvantaged background music and sports were a MAJOR spirit-saver of mine.

[Mad Busker @FractalMoon1]

@jamesenglish0 It's a multi-level cosmic dancefloor with good music, crap music, bright people, weird people. Love, fear, connection, loneliness, lessons and failings. It's an interesting place that's for sure, feels like a dreamy pit-stop somewhat at times though, maybe we aren't meant to know

You're never a grass for preventing people getting hurt, abused and exploited.
