We are very excited to be joined by Jon Salmon for this year’s World Mental Health Day live webinar!

Jon is an award-winning video executive producer, a digital pioneer and co-founder of branded entertainment agency Byte Entertainment.

Jon lost his father to suicide as a teenager. After starting his first job, Jon was sectioned and admitted to hospital with stress and depression. Luckily, Jon was able to get the right help and returned to work a year later. However, Jon decided not to tell anyone about his illness for nearly 20 years due to the stigma and effect he thought it would have on his career and friendships.

It was sadly after the suicide of a close friend due to postnatal depression in 2016 that Jon decided he had to speak out. Jon couldn’t have picked a more public platform to speak out when he spoke alongside the then Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Prince Harry as part of the Heads Together mental health campaign.

Jon has since gone on to speak openly about the importance of better mental health awareness and how talking can not only reduce the stigma but save lives.

Join us to hear his full story of hope and recovery.
