Story
Arthur Peebles, a beautiful soul a kind gentle boy, who took his own life after a long struggle with mental health. Arthur was bullied from an early age when he was just 5 years old he was nearly hung to death by 3 teenage boys at a local park he was taken to by his sister who was 10 and her friend who was just 8 years old, this was just the start of a long battle with bullying, this also had a massive emotional effect on Arthur and again this was just the start of a long battle with his mental health..
Arthurs mum spent most of Arthurs life fighting with the authorities, trying to get Arthur help to try and get the mental health teams to help her son, When Arthur was 16 he took himself to the mental health team at his college to ask for help, he told them what the boys had done to him he admitted it had turnt him from and extrovert to an introvert said in his own words and that he just didnt feel like he belonged he didnt know who he was.
At the tender age of just 18 before he ever experienced life, before he ever had time to have his first drink, first relationship, he felt he couldnt go on anymore, he took his own life.
After his death his mum found pictures he has drawn, they were pictures of torture chambers, demons, guns, and superheros protecting a child with an unhappy face. There was also a story he had written about a necromancer, a person who could see spirits and about how free they are, how normal people go to a grave yard and see sadness and grief but how he didnt see that he saw them rejoicing and happy dancing around
The authorities let him down, the mental health team let him down, no one could help him, he must of felt so alone there was no choice.
Arthurs mum is desperate to get Arthurs story out there, to spread the awareness of what bullying can do to get make more people aware of mental health and get more help for children and adolescants more help.. It takes £5000 to start and register a charity, please help us do this
