Hey there!

My name is Ben. I'm a 16 year old student from London. I have a passion for volunteering, having fun, promoting positive mental health and caring for others.

I was very recently accepted onto the Youth Representative team here at The Mix, and I'm super excited to contribute my ideas to diversity The Mix. It's a pleasure to be apart of this amazing community, especially during this unprecedented time.

I hope you're all doing well, and apologies for the brief introduction!! :3

    Welcome to the community, @BenMa! Exciting to have a Youth Rep around. :)
    All behaviour is a need trying to be met.
    The truth resists simplicity.
    I no longer work at The Mix! If you need anything, message or tag @TheMix

    Welcome Ben!
    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley
