Fighting stigma of mental illness

I was invited today to speak on BBC Radio Leeds http://www.bbc.co.uk/leeds/local_radio/
for a lunchtime feature on fighting the stigma of mental illness.

I told my story and commented on situations sent in by listeners.

Fellow guest was Jackie Whiteley who recently won the Yorkshire Post Woman of Achievement Award.

Jackie and I knew each other through Forward Ladies and had been to Europe with the group last year. http://www.forwardladies.com/
