Facilitator
Ben West: Mental health campaigner
After the unexpected and tragic loss of his 15 year old brother to suicide in 2018, Ben began campaigning for improved mental health awareness and support for young people. He started a petition to make mental health first aid a compulsory part of teacher training and has since handed over 200,000 signatures directly to the Prime Minister at 10 Downing Street. He is also currently working with LinkedIn on their #Changemakers campaign to improve mental health support in workplaces nationally. All in the memory of his brother, with the burning passion to prevent the same from happening to another family.
