But somehow, reaching out to my best<br />

friend, simply letting him in, even if just<br />

for a moment, it became my saviour. I<br />

don’t claim to know all the answers, I<br />

don’t claim to be able to make things<br />

better, but I see me and my experience<br />

as proof to myself that even in dark<br />

times, it is possible to reach the light<br />

again.<br />

In the wise words of Winnie the Pooh:<br />

“You are braver than you believe, stronger<br />

than you seem, smarter than you think,<br />

and loved more than you’ll ever know.” It<br />

is wise to trust in the help and support of<br />

others, but it is more important to trust in<br />

the courage of yourself, and the strength<br />

inside that wills you to survive even in the<br />

darkest of times.<br />

#SUSO<br />

SPEAK UP, SPEAK OUT!<br />

WHAT’S GWARNIN<br />

BY LEANNE ARNOLD<br />

After a busy month of arranging times and<br />

dates to get #SUSO presented within our<br />

collaborating schools we are excited to<br />

announce that we have our first workshops<br />

booked in for November!<br />

#SUSO – is our speak up speak out<br />

campaign which aims to support and<br />

encourage young people to speak up<br />

about their bullying experiences with the<br />

aims of empowering victims to become<br />

survivors. If anyone has a passion about<br />

anti-bullying and would like to get involved<br />

in our campaign please message louiser@<br />
