He mans the Equity hotline, where he answers performer concerns.  If you are looking for support, take a look at Equity's mental health and wellness resources online, or call Addam on the Bullying and Harassment Helpline on 020 7670 0268, or send an email to [email protected]. Details about the drop in sessions at the Actor's Centre are here.
