Harvey first came to Treetops for one-to-one counselling support when he was 10 years old, following the murder of his older brother. He returned for further counselling as he got older and was part of the pilot for the Mollitiam Project in 2019. When he finished his counselling, Harvey was keen to give back to Treetops and became our Children and Young People’s Ambassador. As part of this role, Harvey has shared his story at many events as an advocate for children’s counselling.
