Sam Speaks Out
Today has been a big news day here at Survivors Manchester, thanks to the inspring Sam Thompson.
Sam first approached Survivors Manchester’s Chief Executive, Duncan, whilst he was engaged in getting support from the organistion following his disclosure of being raped.
Duncan said
When Sam first approached me, I was absolutely blown away by his energy, enthusiasm, and determination. He spoke so clearly about what he wanted to do and why and so, I knew we had to find ways to support people hearing his voice.
I immediately thought about learning and how we can learn from his expereince and make Survivors Manchester better; how we can use our networks to allow others to hear him; and support his effort to smash the Guiness World Record Non-Stop DJ attempt.
After many discussions, plans were developed and today the world heard Sam’s voice.
