A Life in Three Parts. This piece wasn’t written to win—it was written to survive. River’s Pride Under Pressure winner is a raw, unfiltered reflection on trauma, transition, and love. That it was recognised means more than we can say. It's proof that truth, even when it hurts, resonates.

River won Vocal’s Pride Under Pressure challenge with a piece that wasn’t written to win—it was written to survive. It’s raw. It’s real. And it means the world to us that truth like this got seen.
