St John Ambulance launches the Hi Vis Stress Vest campaign to get builders to open up about their mental health, after new research reveals seven in 10 have suspected a colleague was suffering from serious depression – but found it too difficult to talk about.
St John has produced the limited edition Hi Vis Stress Vests to prompt mental health conversations that could save lives in construction and other sectors. On the back of each vest – being worn and discussed by construction celebrities TV builder Tommy Walsh, MD of Ashville Group Daniel Ashville Louisy and social influencer Ben ‘The Operator’ Wade – is a statement revealing how construction workers might really be feeling behind the bravado.
