Waller Trainer for Schools and Young People (Charlie Waller Memorial Trust), Youth Mental Health First Aid Instructor (MHFA England)

The Moores were a privileged, fortunate, happy family. Then, in September 2011, the third of their four sons took his own life at the age of 21, after a break-up that led to depression. Dick Moore, who is a veteran headmaster with 30 years of teaching under his belt, valiantly managed to turn his grief around. He now lectures at schools and universities, raising awareness on adolescent mental health. ‘There is so much more that can be done.’ Watch his remarkable story of strength and love.
