I have been involved with Peer Leadership for the past 20 years.
Around 2017, I attained my Peer Support Certificate for Mental Health and I went about advocating for peers to help them attend the Mental Health Tribunals.
I am also active in raising awareness for mental health stigma and the alienation, discrimination to people, that is a result from so much miss informed representation to the general public through the big screen, media and the news.
In 2009 I was diagnosed with a mental disability and as a result, I was isolated and victimised further which only heightened the already effects of severe violence and mental trauma I was a victim too.
I was left with providing my own self determination to find legal representation to help with releasing me from mental health forced treatment orders.
In this ongoing journey I have been witness to much heartache, suffering and pain of many other individuals, some of which killed themselves from having no help or no where to truly find recovery for their mental health issues.
In my 50 year lived experience, I do know recovery is possible and I have built an ongoing personal tool kit for every day challenges that I find myself living with mental health struggles.
And I want to be able to share these strategies to people suffering with mental health issues.
My mission is to help in particular people to gain access to qualified lived experienced peer leaders, as I know that sharing stories and struggles with someone that has experienced a similar path can be life changing.
I invite you, who are able to contribute to the building of this website along with engaging the paid services of Peer Leaders.
Please consider donating as a one off payment or a recurring payment per month or year.
