Today is World Suicide Prevention Day, so I wanted to check in to see how you’re doing. With construction workers being four times more likely to die by suicide than the national average, we want to let you know you’re not alone and discuss how you could seek help for yourself or even help a friend. 

Here are some stats to start you off today. On The Tools, recently found that 73% of the country's 2.1 million construction workers have been affected by mental illness and in the last decade, over 7,000 have taken their own lives. We want you to know today you are not alone, we’re here to help as are all your mates, not just on your site, but everyone listening to this up and down the country.

We were joined by James Pacy who told us about his very powerful experience and Keith Lewis from Samaritan who told us about the services they provide and who helped us with some advice to help family and friends. Remember, if you ever need them Samaritans are available 24 hours a day 7 days a week on 116 123. 

Plus, there's the pub lunch quiz, and you'll hear the very best messages we received.

As The Met Office confirms that summer 2025 was officially the hottest on record for the United Kingdom, we’re talking about working in that heat! The World Health Organization and the World Meteorological Organization have reported recently that millions of workers are exposed to heat stress, which affects their health, and their performance. They’ve both called for governments, employers, and workers to co-operate to develop adaptation strategies! Closer to home, unions such as GMB and Unite are calling for a 27oC limit for manual work to protect workers. So today I’m asking, is a maximum working temperature a good thing? Or just more red tape that’s going to stop you getting on with the job? We spoke to Gary Mcyintire AKA Roofing Banksy and Sean Kelly to hear how they think heat should be dealt with in our industry.
