Robert Higgs provides Anti-Bullying workshops and drama presentations to schools and local education authorities nationally. Robert began his work after experiencing bullying himself at school. He is now the author of two books on bullying - What Have I Ever Done To You? and Matty Doyle's Monster and has spoken about his experiences in various media, including Radio 1 and 2, Sky News, BBC Breakfast, BBC 7 and Martial Arts Illustrated.
