6yrs ago I setup @VoiceoutLeeds following my own experiences of both childhood abuse and abuse in the care system. My work/campaign continues throughout. #voiceoutleeds #ihearyou #mentoo #malesurvivors #onedayatatime #youarenotalone

Talking is important but are you ready 2listen, as someone who suffers from mental health. I know from personal experience, that often it’s more a case of feeling ignored or undervalued. That’s why I say stop look and listen, listening with your whole self. #MentalHealthAwareness

Yesterday I was invited to speak on @SkyNews about my own sexual abuse by a care worker in the #NHS and hopefully help further raise much needed awareness around #sexualabuseinmen

Honestly can’t believe it’s almost 3yrs since I officially started @VoiceoutLeeds I would like to express my sincere gratitude for all the support received, it’s been a long journey but together we will get through. #StrongerTogether #mentoo #voiceoutleeds

There’s many reasons people commit #suicide or attempt suicide, often they feel #alone in these situations and #scared that they will not be #listened to. Let’s #help suicidal thoughts before it becomes suicide by #talking. https://t.co/2LG6RmoR28

Understand and support others and signpost them to other organisations who might be able to offer additional #support. #VoiceOutLeeds therefore is one #survivor supporting another and bridging the gap that exists between #trauma and #therapy. One day I hope to provide both.

Others going through what I did, to not suffer alone or silence and to help give you the strength and support to find your voice. #VoiceOutLeeds is not a counselling service however since setting up @VoiceoutLeeds I have attended many courses and workshops, so that I can better

I recently got asked what exactly #VoiceOutLeeds is and what exactly it stands for and how it all began, in summary @VoiceoutLeeds was developed after experiencing sexual abuse myself abuse myself, and feeling lost and alone with my thoughts. @VoiceoutLeeds was developed to help

Morning all how we all feeling today?

4years ago I broke my silence on my abuse in the care system, it wasn’t easy and I was anxious about speaking out publicly. However it helped me change what happened from being a secret and exposed the truth to help me heal. #dontsufferinsilence #mentoo #VoiceOutLeeds #survivor

[Voice Out Leeds #MenToo @VoiceoutLeeds]

This has now reached over 79k people, if me sharing my story can help just one other person I believe it’s worth doing. #VoiceOutLeeds was formed to help others like myself after I found a lack of services myself. My aim is to ensure everyone has a voice. https://t.co/yuHF5h9fvf

[Voice Out Leeds #MenToo @VoiceoutLeeds]

Over a year has passed since I successfully completed my level2 #counselling course and although #covid has prevented many things I have continued to attend many online courses, with the aim of helping others. #VoiceOutLeeds #YouAreNotAlone #Survivor #mentoo

[Voice Out Leeds #MenToo @VoiceoutLeeds]

Hi guys, today I would like to share with you my certificate that has finally come through. I’m so immensely proud of my achievements and determination and desire to help others following my own abuse. Ensuring nobody feels alone. #VoiceOutLeeds #mentoo #metoo  #YouAreNotAlone

[Voice Out Leeds #MenToo @VoiceoutLeeds]

We never know the issues another person is perhaps facing, but by being kind we might enable them to see the good beyond. #Think #MenToo #Survivors #StrongerTogether #VoiceOutLeeds #YouAreNotAlone

Wishing everyone a very happy new year, and the strength they might need in the year ahead. #HAPPYNEWYEAR2022 #VoiceOutLeeds #MenToo #StrongerTogether #YouAreNotAlone
