Danny McNamara (Embrace) Danny had three years of verbal bullying at school. His advice is not to be afraid to tell someone about it. The people bullying are the people who've got the problem, not you. Eventually he hooked up with a different group of people and they all stuck up for each other.

Jennifer Ellison At school Jen saw herself as geeky and one of the girls in her class would hit her. At first she was afraid to tell anyone but once she'd let her Mum help, the girl was suspended.
