Hi Everyone, I’m Simon and a new volunteer at RAW People. I have my own lived experience of trauma, eating disorders, mental health issues and my own journey of recovery. I am passionate about supporting and empowering other people and that’s why I love working in mental health and now as a volunteer at RAW People. Its a fantastic opportunity for me to be part of the charity and I love the work RAW People does, as well as the positive impact it has on the community.
