This story

Gary managed a chronic eye condition throughout a 29-year prison service career in Peterborough. After a new manager refused disability adjustments and subjected him to workplace bullying, the strain pushed him to the brink of suicide and led to his dismissal. He helped launch and facilitate a local men's peer support group, which he credits with saving his life.
