About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour 30 minutes

**TW - This talk references suicidal ideation and strong religious themes **.

In this talk at the Grapevine Centre, Matthew shares stories from a lifetime of seeking joy, truth and community against the odds – from a controlling childhood environment, to a branch of Christian extremism, and finally into freedom.

Grapevine is happy to be hosting this series of personal talks by people with lived experience. Please look out for the other talks in this series here on Eventbrite.
