In this powerful episode of The Black Country Blokes, hosts Lee and Kev talk about World Suicide Prevention Day, observed every year on September 10th, to raise awareness and provide support for those struggling with mental health. We also share an incredible journey as Lee and his son Alfie take on the world's fastest zip line—100mph on a 1.5km stretch—to raise money for Dravet Syndrome UK, a cause close to Lee's heart, as his daughter Calla-Rose lives with the condition. Join us as we discuss mental health, awareness, and overcoming challenges. Please consider supporting Lee's zip line challenge by donating to Dravet Syndrome UK through the link below!
