37: Head-Shunt (with Paul Stanford)

Railway Mania

Mental health issues can affect anyone in the world and rail workers are no exception.
In this episode, we welcome Paul Stanford, railwayperson of 40 years and founder of HEAD-SHUNT, the mental health charity for the railway family.
Paul tells us not only about the challenges to mental health that come from working on the railway, but also the attitudes in the industry, how the scene is changing, what needs to change, as well as his own issues that led to him creating Head-Shunt.
