He also writes for @MetroUk and is part of @ITV #BritainGetTalkingFrom a young age, Joe was bullied, assaulted and isolated. As a result of the bullying, Joe was admitted to a psychiatric unit in the UK after attempting to take his own life. At the age of 12, Joe got into volunteering at a specialist youth cafe devoted to young people with additional needs and who were getting into trouble. Joe continued to volunteer for National organisations such as the British Medical Association, The National Council for Voluntary Youth Services and The British Youth Council.At the age of 13 Joe set up the 'Speak Up, Speak Out’ campaign with support from James Arthur, Sinitta Malone and Richard Branson, the campaign went global. Joe in partnership with the Home Office, developed a supportive disclosure toolkit to help those with Autism and other additional learning needs, better communicate what was going on if they were experiencing bullying.Where to find Joe:FB: https://www.facebook.com/JoePlumbUK/Instagram: @joeplumbukTwitter: @JoePlumbUK#mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #selfcare #selflove #love #anxiety #motivation #depression #health #mentalhealthmatters #mindfulness #life #wellness #loveyourself #fitness #inspiration #healing #happiness #positivity #positivevibes #covid #quotes #therapy #mindset #meditation #mentalillness #instagood #happy #psychologyWhere to find The Black Country Blokes:https://www.facebook.com/theblackcoun...https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaf9...https://twitter.com/BlackcountryThehttps://www.instagram.com/theblackcou...Please subscribe, share, follow, and like.Anxiety UKCharity providing support if you have been diagnosed with an anxiety condition.Phone: 03444 775 774 (Monday to Friday, 9.30 am to 5.30 pm)Website: www.anxietyuk.org.ukThe bipolar UKA charity helping people living with manic depression or bipolar disorder.Website: www.bipolaruk.org.ukCALMCALM is the Campaign Against Living Miserably, for men aged 15 to 35.Phone: 0800 58 58 58 (daily, 5pm to midnight)Website: www.thecalmzone.netMen's Health Forum24/7 stress support for men by text, chat and email.Website: www.menshealthforum.org.ukMental Health FoundationProvides information and support for anyone with mental health problems or learning disabilities.Website: www.mentalhealth.org.ukMindPromotes the views and needs of people with mental health problems.Phone: 0300 123 3393 (Monday to Friday, from 9 am to 6 pm)Website: www.mind.org.ukNo PanicVoluntary charity offering support for sufferers of panic attacks and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).
