Torin Liversedge - Rotary Young Citizen Awards 2025

Описание: Torin Liversedge has been using his passion for photography to raise awareness and vital funds for mental health services, following the tragic loss of his brother, Corey, who took his own life in 2020, aged 16.

Torin has poured his heart into his photography, capturing images of the local landscape to create calendars in aid of Scottish Action for Mental Health (SAMH), who provide mental health support and accessible, practical information.

Torin has sold over 350 calendars - raising over £5,250, with production funded entirely by himself, every penny raised going to SAMH's North East Suicide Prevention work, to reduce stigma and increase capacity to support conversations around suicide.

Each calendar shares their story on the back, in the hope that it can help prevent other families from experiencing a similar tragedy to theirs.

Torin is already planning next year’s effort and hopes to continue to raise funds and to share his message of hope, to prevent others from suffering and to help save lives.

Torin was nominated by Rotary Aboyne & Upper Deeside
