Award-winning mental health activist 

A prolific multi-award-winning mental health activist, campaigner, public speaker, disruptor and expert by experience, Antonio fervently campaigns for anti-racism within the mental health sector, intending to shift how the UK views and addresses mental ill-health within racialised communities.
