  • Summary

  • Welcome to this mini-episode of the podcast, where we revisit a powerful and emotional conversation with Neil Laybourn and Jonny Benjamin. In this heartfelt excerpt, Jonny shares his deeply personal experience with mental health struggles, his time in inpatient care, and the events that led him to Waterloo Bridge on a pivotal day in his life. Neil recounts his spontaneous decision to approach Jonny on the bridge, offering connection and hope during a critical moment, despite having no prior knowledge or training in mental health intervention.


    Together, they reflect on the profound impact of that encounter—Jonny’s gratitude for being treated with humanity rather than as a patient, and Neil’s realisation of the importance of empathy and presence in moments of crisis.
