Ben is encouraging automotive people to set themselves up with the most important meal of the day and get together with others over a cuppa and breakfast butty. As World Mental Health Day is the finale of the week-long event, the focus is also on opening up, talking about mental health, connecting with others and sharing experiences.

Host a breakfast any day during that week and bring, bake, make and sell breakfast to raise money to support Ben’s work in the industry. Those hosting Ben’s Big Breakfast can also raffle a Ben bear to fundraise.

The charity is asking individuals and companies in the industry to host colleagues, family, friends and customers for Ben’s Big Breakfast, because when any member of our automotive family is in crisis, we all rally to support them.
