OFFICIAL STATEMENT & PUBLIC NOTICE — WELLSPRING TRUST

📢 WHAT HAPPENED — THE FULL UNADULTERATED TRUTH — EXACTLY HOW IT WENT DOWN
I am posting this because I have run out of patience. I have run out of trust. And I have run out of reasons to stay quiet about the way this place operates — behind closed doors, behind the lies, and behind the people they let hang around like they belong there. Everything I am about to tell you is on video. Everything can be proven. And I am sending this — along with full footage — to every single person who has ever given Wellspring a penny, every local authority that funds them, and every single member of their own community group.
This is exactly what happened. Word for word. Move for move.
It started simple. My partner was there. And one of the female staff — a sour-faced sewer rat of a woman — decided to open her mouth and call my girlfriend fat. That is the start. That is the root of everything. I found out. I said: “I’m going in there and making her apologise.”
One of her little groupies — these men that hang around the female staff like loyal dogs — stepped in front of me. Not staff. A GROUPIE. HE said: “Don’t you fucking talk to her like that.”
I looked him dead in the eye and I said: “I’ll talk about that sewer rat however I fucking want, son.”
He said: “I’ll punch you.”
I said: “Go ahead. Dare you.”
AND HE DID.
He swung. He connected. AND HE HIT ME LIKE A FUCKING GIRL. I need this understood clearly — MY FIVE YEAR OLD GEORDIE COUSIN HIT ME HARDER THAN THIS MANCHESTER MONKEY FUCKING CUNT. It was pathetic. It was weak. It was sad. I didn’t wobble. I didn’t step back. I didn’t even flinch. I just stood there and looked at him and I said it to his face: “You act like a fucking girl, mate.”
HE WENT WHITE AS A FUCKING SHEET. He turned around. He went straight back inside. SAT DOWN. AND STARTED GRUMBLING TO HIMSELF. He threw the world’s saddest punch, got called out on it, and instantly folded like a cheap deck of cards. Later — when I was leaving — I stopped and I said it right to him again: “Well I’m right fucking here, mate. What’s the matter with you?” AND HE DID NOT HAVE THE BALLS TO SAY ONE FUCKING WORD BACK. That is your tough guy. That is the man who threatened me. ALL BARK. NO BALLS.
👊 THE SECOND HIT — THE COWARD’S WAY — FROM BEHIND
Then all the shit kicked off. I went back inside. The staff came out. They asked: “Who punched you?” I said: “Look at your own fucking cameras, mate. I’m not your boss.”
And while I was standing there — SIX FUCKING VOLUNTEERS — people who had ALL been sent EMAILS. ALL been WARNED. ALL been told IN WRITING: DO NOT TOUCH HIM. DO NOT APPROACH HIM. DO NOT BRUSH AGAINST HIM. NO PHYSICAL CONTACT OF ANY KIND. — SIX OF THESE PEOPLE GRABBED HOLD OF ME ANYWAY. They pinned me. They held me. They crowded me. They VIOLATED EVERY SINGLE RULE THEY HAD BEEN GIVEN.
And while I am being held — RESTRAINED — UNABLE TO DEFEND MYSELF — THIS SLY LITTLE BASTARD CAME FROM BEHIND ANOTHER MEMBER OF STAFF — HIDING — AND PUNCHED ME RIGHT IN THE SIDE OF THE FUCKING HEAD.
THAT ACTUALLY ANNOYED ME. Not because it hurt — because it was CHEAP. Because it was COWARDLY. Because a man who hits you from behind while you are held by six people is NOT a man. He is a snake. And he knows it.
🛑 THE WARNING SHOT — I HELD BACK. I DID NOT HURT ANY OF THEM.
Now — while I am being held — while they are all over me — one of them gets TOO CLOSE TO MY FACE. WAY TOO CLOSE. IN MY PERSONAL SPACE THAT THEY HAVE BEEN REPEATEDLY TOLD NEVER TO ENTER.
MY BODY REACTED BEFORE MY BRAIN EVEN CAUGHT UP. He got a little knuckle right on the bridge of his nose. He wobbled. That is IT. I DID NOT BREAK IT. I DID NOT HURT HIM BADLY. I DID NOT GO FOR THE KILL. And let me make this PERFECTLY CLEAR: I HAD SIX OF THEM ON ME AND I MANAGED NOT TO FUCKING DECK ANY OF THEM. I could have. I could have put several of them on the floor. BUT I DIDN’T. Because I am NOT the animal here. I held back. I showed RESTRAINT. Even while being assaulted. Even while being pinned. Even while being PUNCHED FROM BEHIND — I DID NOT HURT A SINGLE ONE OF THEM SERIOUSLY.
And remember — EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THE VOLUNTEERS THAT GRABBED ME HAD BEEN SENT AN EMAIL. HAD BEEN WARNED. HAD BEEN TOLD EXPLICITLY: DO NOT TOUCH HIM. DO NOT APPROACH HIM. AND THEY DID IT ANYWAY. AND WHEN THE MAN THEY WERE WARNED NOT TO TOUCH REACTED EXACTLY THE WAY HE WAS WARNED HE WOULD — THEY ACTED LIKE THE VICTIM.
🚬 THE THINGS NO ONE IS SUPPOSED TO SEE — THE DRUGS. THE GLASS PIPES. THE OPEN SECRETS
But the assault is only half of what I am here to tell you. While I have been coming and going from this place, I have seen things that should never happen anywhere — let alone at a registered charity claiming to support vulnerable people.
I have personally seen people smoking mamba outside the building — openly — in full view of the entrance.
I have personally seen people going into the porchway — sheltered from the wind — sitting right there with glass pipes — smoking crack — while staff walk past like they see nothing.
I have seen it with my own eyes. I have watched it happen. And I am sick of it.
This is not hearsay. This is not rumour. This is me — standing there — seeing it day after day — and watching staff turn a blind eye. They will let their groupies punch people. They will let volunteers grab people they were told never to touch. But they will let people stand ten feet from the front door smoking Class A drugs and synthetic cannabinoids right in the faces of everyone walking in and out. That is not support. That is negligence. That is enabling. That is a charity that has lost its moral compass completely.
Children walk past there. Families walk past there. Vulnerable people trying to get clean walk past there — and they are met with crack smoke and mamba fumes coming from the porchway of the very place supposed to help them. And the staff? They walk through it like it’s normal. Like it’s acceptable. Like it’s just “how things are.”
IT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. AND I AM NOT HAVING IT ANYMORE.
⚖️ HOW THIS ENDS — THE DONORS GET THE FULL TRUTH
I am not dealing with this with my fists. I proved that when six people held me and I still didn’t seriously hurt any of them. I am dealing with this legally, publicly, and completely.
I have video footage. I have timelines. I have names. I have the emails proving EVERY SINGLE VOLUNTEER was told NOT TO TOUCH ME. And I am sending EVERYTHING — the weak punch, the coward’s second hit, the six volunteers violating written instructions, the drugs, the cover-ups — to every single donor, every supporter, every trustee, every council contact, and every organisation that has ever given Wellspring a single penny.
You deserve to know what your money is funding:
- A place that lets staff members call vulnerable women fat
- A place that lets their hang-around groupies threaten and assault people
- A place where six volunteers VIOLATE written instructions to not touch someone AND THEN ACT SURPRISED WHEN HE REACTS
- A place where cowardly little men punch people FROM BEHIND while they are being held
- A place where Class A drugs are smoked openly on the doorstep while staff walk past
- A place where the victims get blamed and the attackers get a free pass
They thought silencing us would make it go away. They were wrong.
This is not over. This is only just beginning. And every single person who has ever supported this place — from the £5 monthly donor to the largest grant-giving body — is going to get the full unvarnished truth. Wellspring will either fix this from the top down — or they will cease to exist.
I DID NOT START THIS. I DID NOT THROW A REAL PUNCH. I DID NOT HURT ANYONE SERIOUSLY. I MERELY DEFENDED MY WOMAN, MY SPACE, AND MYSELF.
AND THE WHOLE WORLD IS GOING TO KNOW IT.
