Craig was named in the top 10 HSE influencers in Europe by his peers and also runs a successful podcast to talk about construction and mental health. Craig has also previously been asked to provide advice to golf clubs – which led him to reach out to SGCMA.

• Addiction, Suicide, Substance abuse
• Stress, anxiety and burnout.
• The effects on business (from all the above).

Starting his career on site as a labourer, Craig was close to his friend’s fatal accident on site. This made him re-evaluate his career to try and prevent such things happening.

Craig worked his way to H&S Advisor and gained a reputation as one of the up and coming top safety professionals. After many years as a H&S Manager he realised that mental health and the growing suicide rate in Construction was where his next challenge was. Craig obtained his qualifications for training mental health first aid and awareness.

 He also conducts suicide awareness and prevention classes.
