Lost Voices Heard / 30th May 2025

[Chris Grady]

This is to acknowledge that yesterday, at CH Horsham, around 50 people gathered for Lost Voices Heard with a further 10 on zoom from around the world. Enormous privilege to be there and help to facilitate the day for an awesome, to quote Dr Nina Burrowes, assembly of Old Blues, parents, allies and friends.It was powerful to hear the Statement of Acknowledgement read in Dining Hall by the current Head, and to hear the new Treasurer's dedication to taking forward so much of what has been done already. Thank you to everyone for their openness, honesty, and sharing. Travel safe home and onward in life.

Thank you Chris for arranging this. For anyone interested I made a short video on the day which follows on from the CH video I made a few years ago "Revisiting my traumatic past" https://youtu.be/-eX-ztGHapI?si=MBrqtMtNYOKr7zIi

Thank you for the video diary - powerfully personal and rightly completely respectful of others' privacy.
