Activist and best-selling author Ben West is joining Dr Alex George for a stomp among the deer in Richmond Park.
After losing his 15-year-old brother Sam to suicide, Ben explains the struggle of recounting their final interactions, how he previously misunderstood depression and why it’s so important to remember the sun will always set on a bad day.
In part 2, Ben West shares how the tragic loss of his brother compelled him to turn to activism.
In the final part of this stomp, Ben West shares how he looks after his own mental health while revisiting the saddest moments in his and other people’s lives.
