Honouring the Life of Billy - Mental Health Within the Yachting Industry
Season 2, Episode 778, Apr 27, 2023, 04:43 AM
Billy's passing was a shock to the yachting community and his family. Billy was a kind, passionate, professional person and a proud Cornishman. His family have since found out that despite spending time with him, he was dealing with mental health challenges and had begun to feel increasingly isolated.
This highlights the need for people to be open about their struggles and ask for help rather than trying to manage them alone.
His family reported having received minimal assistance from the industry overall. This has led them to call on the industry for more support.
The key takeaways are that people should reach out for help when struggling with mental health issues, bullying and toxic leadership must not be accepted, and more protection should be put in place for crews. Mental health should be prioritised, and talking about it openly is imperative.
