OLYMPIC torch bearer Adrian Derbyshire is carrying the flame of his fight against bullying into a Warrington shopping centre.
Former wheelchair athlete and Great Britain gold medal winner Adrian, who was left disabled by a brain tumour, will be taking his message into Golden Square Shopping Centre next Saturday, April 25.
It’s the start of a partnership between hate crime Ambassador Adrian, former supervisor at a cafe, and Golden Square, with a series of awareness-raising events throughout the summer.
The shopping centre is aiming to support Adrian’s continued efforts to champion his message in the community and raise money for his cause which has taken him all round the country and overseas.
Other dates he will visit the centre to spread his message are Saturday  June 6, Saturday July 18, Saturday  August 29, Saturday September 12 and Saturday October 10.
While at the centre next Saturday Adrian plans to spend time talking to people about their own experiences of stigma, bullying and hate crime to help them to beat the tormentors.
His campaign targets everything from hate crime to social media abuse, which he says is the latest form of psychological bullying, especially for teens.
