Nick Woodhead, Health and Wellbeing Development Officer, said: "It is an inspiring and powerful account of how volunteering has assisted a number of people to overcome the barriers & discrimination which accompany mental illness and disability. All are volunteers with local charities, supporting the delivery of services – being a helper rather than always being helped. I am sure that a number of people featured in the film will be familiar to you! Please share . . . ."
