4 weeks ago I went down to the river. I didn’t want to die but I didn’t feel worthy of life nor a sense of belonging. Rescued by lifeboat volunteers Teddington Lifeboat. Strangers who cared about me and my life - such kindness made me feel human. RNLI #WSPD2022 #SuicidePrevention

I wrote about 10-year-old Cooper saving a drowning toddler in the summer, after he got tips from his favourite show ⁦Bondi Rescue⁩ and his hero ⁦Bruce Hopkins⁩. Hoppo saw it and flew over to surprise him. Such a lovely story, thank you Hoppo! bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…
