Said the following about Chris Parkinson:

“While suffering from a serious mental health condition, Chris as my line manager, offered me the best help/support I could have asked for. He showed both empathy and compassion. He listened to me and was there to talk to whenever I needed him, even if he was on annual leave. He supported me in getting back to work and back to my usual role. Chris is happy to share his own experiences in order to show his understanding of mental health, he is also someone I feel I can trust to disclose the most personal of things to without fear or embarrassment.“
