A man who survived a horrific accident which left him with a brain injury has spoken of the need to speak about mental health.
Tim Richens, from Draycott in Somerset spoke about his ordeal ahead of World Mental Health Day on Tuesday, October 10, and is urging others to have constructive conversations following his own struggles and a devastating fall which changed his life.
He had been an accomplished entrepreneur with a successful property business, but his life was suddenly knocked off course one night in February 2013. Tim, now 60, said: “It was a normal evening. I went out and watched some darts and decided to go into town.”
