Ben West’s life was turned upside in 2018 when his younger brother committed suicide. Ben grieved and sought answers, like we all would. He then made a decision that would alter the direction his life would take: He decided to turn all his energy towards campaigning for mental health awareness. Ben joins the Mind Field Pod to tell us his story, from tragic beginnings to meeting and discussing mental health provision at schools with none other than the Prime Minister Boris Johnson. His campaign, Save our students, focuses on making mental health first aid a compulsory part of teacher training. It recognises and addresses the rather staggering fact that the most likely cause of death for a boy in a classroom is suicide. His petition has received over 300,000 signatures to date and he hand delivered it to the PM Boris Johnson at Downing Street himself. Ben’s story of meeting the PM at an awards event after a few drinks is worth hearing all on its own. Ben takes us through his latest campaign: He's now looking to tackle mental health at universities by forcing University rankings to include mental health support as a measure. Ben is only twenty years old and he’s already featured on the BBC, ITV, Channel 5 and in the Times. It’s probably no surprise that he’s discussed mental health with figures such as the Prime Minister and Prince William. For more follow: https://www.instagram.com/iambenwest/
