Interview with Brave The Bullies Together Founder Emily Foster

I thought it would be nice to get to know a little bit about Brave The Bullies Together and what and who the book helps.  Her name is Emily Foster and she is a smart and courageous lady who is taking a stand against bullies and bullying in schools on the playground and in life in general.  I thought it would be interesting to bring her story to the fold so everyone knows about Brave The Bullies and the work that Emily is doing.

Hi Emily, Tells us how you started up Brave the Bullies Together and how personal this cause is to you?

I started Brave the Bullies Together in 2012 after finishing my GCSEs, I initially started raising awareness about bullying on Twitter and Facebook while I organised a summer fair to raise the funds needed to buy equipment for the anti-bullying workshops I wanted to start running in September 2012. This cause is extremely personal to me and it means more than anything to be doing this work as my best friend, Sam, committed suicide in 2009 as a result of lifelong bullying over a skin condition that he had from birth. Sam was an amazing friend and one of the most selfless and caring person I ever met and I feel that it's important not only to give something back to him and everything he did for me, but to make sure that I do everything I can to prevent people from having to suffer alone with bullying.

What is the main purpose of Brave The Bullies Together and what goals do you have for it?

Interview With Brave The Bullies Editor Steve Taylor-Bryant

While I was asked to write a story for the Brave The Bullies Together Book I thought it would be a good idea to meet and talk to a couple of the people who brought this project to life.  Anyone can say they are going to do something but few actually get things done and Steve is that type of guy who gets things done and likes to help out a good cause.  I've known Steve for more than a year and I know how passionate he gets when it comes to projects and helping out a good cause.  Here is the chat we had and hopefully you get more of realization of what the eleven authors involvement with the book really meant to all involved.

Hi Steve before we get started tell us about your projects the geek and multimedia site The Cult Den and your involvement with Dream Cage and Hairless Whispers?

Let me start by saying WOW!! It's a privilege to be the person interviewed for a change and I thank you for doing this. I had a great 2012. It all started when I discovered social network site Twitter. I
