Ricky Frost is a spoken word artist and mental health poet from Essex. Growing up in a household with substance abuse and ignorance towards mental health issues, he found solace in writing and used it as a tool for self-expression and reflection. 

He is also a mentor for Lads Need Dads, helping boys aged 11-15 with absent fathers to develop life skills and emotional expression. Through poetry and volunteer work, he wishes to inspire others to seek help, speak out, and find healing and hope in their own lives.
