Meet your Storytellers:
Answers Within – Danyon Fairbrother
Growing up in Christchurch, Danyon’s early life was marked by instability, moving through foster homes and institutions while surrounded by dysfunction. His teenage years quickly spiralled into alcohol and drug addiction, and by just 17 years old he was incarcerated in Christchurch Men’s Prison ( youth unit ) believing his future held only two possibilities: prison or death. Daynon’s lived experience demonstrates that no matter how dark the past may be, it’s always possible to rewrite your story.
