鈥淢usic is like a second heart to me鈥

The 大象传媒 Radio Derby Make A Difference Awards are an opportunity to celebrate the heroes in our community. 21-year-old Andrea Crawford from Derby was bullied for several years after suffering a brain infection. Despite this, she started writing and singing songs to empower and support other victims of bullying.

Andrea was awarded the Together Award at the Make A Difference Awards ceremony in September. Before the event, she shared her inspiring story with 大象传媒 Radio Derby鈥檚 Sally Pepper.
