Brewer joins Ben crusade
Mike Brewer has become its first ever Ben Celebrity Ambassador.
Mike is renowned in the industry for his role as presenter of the popular TV show, Wheeler Dealers, and he is also a journalist, producer, campaigner and motoring enthusiast.
This is an official voluntary partnership role at Ben and will be crucial in further strengthening the charity’s important work with the automotive industry. Moving forward, the organisation sees Ben Celebrity Ambassadors as integral to raising awareness about Ben within the industry.
Mike has supported Ben for many years and his most recent involvement in the inaugural Hats on 4 Mental Health Day campaign in 2016 helped raise over £13,000. With Mike’s help, Ben galvanised the industry to come together to raise awareness about mental health challenges.
Zara Ross, chief executive at Ben, said, ‘We’re absolutely thrilled to welcome Mike Brewer as a Ben Celebrity Ambassador and we are extremely grateful for his support. We strongly believe that with Mike’s help, we can continue to make a difference to people in our industry and raise awareness to new audiences who may not have heard of Ben before.’
Mike said, ‘I’m delighted to become a Ben Celebrity Ambassador as I greatly admire and value the organisation’s important work in our industry – it is a lifeline for so many people. I’m also really pleased to be supporting Ben’s Hats on 4 Mental Health Day campaign again this year as we need to keep talking about mental health and raise awareness to put an end to people suffering in silence. I’m really looking forward to working in partnership with Ben over the next year.’
