A conversation with Jonny Benjamin and his father Michael

 

Last week we held the first in our series of events for parents. We were delighted to welcome Jonny Benjamin MBE and his father Michael to come and talk very openly about their experiences with Mental Health.

The evening gave parents an insight into what it feels like as a young person to be struggling with mental health and emotional wellbeing. We are very grateful to Jonny and Michael for giving up their time to support our work. Guests who attended included our own parents and also members of the wider community.

We are proud to support Jonny’s own charity ‘Beyond Shame Beyond Stigma’, and the proceeds from the event will be shared between our Mental Health and Emotional Wellbeing projects and Jonny’s charity.

The next event in this series will take place on Monday 23 September with Relationship and Parenting expert Mandy Salagari, so please save the date. Tickets will be available later on in the term.
