Dear DurhamEnable

-

I have dedicated my personal time and energy to supporting DurhamEnable, including attending funding forums and actively contributing to its mission. To be mistreated in this way, followed by an evasive and inadequate response to a serious complaint—with no clear or definitive social media policies provided—has left me unable, in good faith, to continue trusting your organisation.


The decision to terminate the podcast, which was part of the employment-seeking support, based on vague and unsubstantiated accusations, amounts to direct discrimination against my community. It is both unprofessional and unacceptable.


I can no longer continue engaging with an organisation that lacks transparency, integrity, and accountability—particularly when it fails to uphold the very principles of support and inclusion it claims to stand for.


This is not support. This is a harmful and maladaptive response that undermines the very people you are supposed to empower.

Butterfly world Stockton and abused:

💔 Went to butterfly world left Bud in the car for forty minutes and it's cool in the car and the windows are all open. Dog is absolutely fine but the way India who works there spoke to us laughing at us and slagging us off triggered my autism in public. Just had an autistic meltdown cause people are accusing us of animal cruelty and overstepping unprofessionally and abusively so we've left. Total humiliation and false allegations man. There's a way to talk to people so we've left and gone home. She was openly telling other people that we are abusive and they were all laughing at me but how dare she. He has water and we were almost done cause we were not going to leave him long but it doesn't matter. People don't care they only care to act high and mighty with a ganging up mentality.  Getting members of the public involved is wrong and if she had bothered to put her hand in the car where it's cooler than outside and in the shade she would have realised she w...

Let the truth free:

https://suno.com/song/9d00a6ed-1993-4f89-8957-e870e2721dfb?sh=fktW7nMZgO995bZU The song I made about this on an AI app called SUNO with my lyrics (above) --- I'm done being scared and bullied and hiding. I set the truth free and if I get harmed and arrested for doing so, so be it. I refuse to be harmed or suffer anymore, I can't cope. I've harmed no one at any time and asking for an apology and blogging about my mistreatment doesn't justify false allegations. This has been breaking me. I need to set the truth free so my bullies have no more control. I'm sorry I wish I was stronger. I did my best.

Ramside Hall and Northern Housing Consortium:

I am excited to say that the event at Ramside Hall went spectacularly well, I attended with my best friend Corin and we had such a lovely time. I gave a wonderful speech as to how Northern Housing Consortium has helped me spectacularly with a bursary for my start up business www.magnoliaphotography.co.uk and I happily share the quoted speech I gave below:  " As a start-up business, I initially struggled to  meet the demands of contractual work. Creating art by finger painting on my phone screen was time-consuming, imprecise, and physically challenging. This made it difficult to meet my clients' expectations for detail and speed. Living with chronic pain and disabilities only added to these difficulties. When I learned through Livin Futures that Northern Housing Consortium was offering a start-up bursary, I immediately applied for a drawing tablet, hoping it could change the way I work. Receiving the bursary has been truly transformative. With my new drawing tablet, I can now ...
