While walking to work on 14 January 2008, a simple act of kindness changed Neil Laybourn’s life for ever when he stopped on Waterloo Bridge to persuade a young man from taking his own life. Now one of the UK’s leading mental health advocates, he joins TTG and Abta LifeLine’s Get Travel Talking Week to share his amazing story that proves how anyone can make a difference.
Taking place 10-14 May, Get Travel Talking Week aims to bring the industry together to share experiences and advice around boosting mental health awareness and put workplace wellbeing at the forefront as travel works its way towards recovery.
Throughout the week there are opportunities for you, your colleagues and businesses to get involved, and all content is free to access on the TTG website and Facebook page. Join the conversation across social media using #GetTravelTalking and view the full programme of activities.
