Nominate Kayla for Mental Healthy "Creative Hero" Award

The Mental Healthy Awards are open and Kayla would be delighted if you would consider nominating her for The ‘Creative Hero’!

The Creative Hero (Amateur) award recognises people who have made a real difference to the lives of others through their creativity. Since being diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder in 2009, Kayla has worked hard to promote positive awareness and challenge stigma surrounding misunderstood conditions like PD through her recorded and live music, articles in local and national press, YouTube channel, Blog and Tours around the UK.

In the past two years, Kayla has put herself in the public eye campaigning in newspapers, on the internet, at events and through her music to a worldwide audience. Kayla is committed to working with organisations such as Emergence Plus and Rethink Mental Illness, through whom she has had the opportunity to speak out through the media and at events across the UK, challenging the stigma so often associated with conditions like Personality Disorder.

Kayla would be very grateful if you would consider nominating her for this prestigious award, which recognises those who have used creativity to help raise awareness and campaign for better understanding of mental health conditions.
