Hi I was part of a writing group that the Zink project has set up. I have always loved to write but mainly for academic or business really. When I had my mental health crisis I really struggled to read and write for a long time. This group has been amazing as I have fell in love with writing again and I can even write poetry which actually is pretty good. I never knew that. This booklet that we have produced is not just my work but work of the whole group. All the members are lovely, amazing writers and everyone has a story to tell. My story as you will see in the booklet is very much about my mental health journey and recovery. There is a particularly important piece at the end of the booklet about my experience of being sectioned under the Mental Health Act. I would like to raise some money for Zink as they ran this project and have printed the booklet. If you donate and give your details, or message me privately, I will send you a copy of the booklet. If you are local, you can come to the Zink Project and hear us read our favourite pieces from the Booklet on April 10th at 3pm. Thank you so much.
