ABOUT BEN

I was always a bit of a rebel!

I left school at 15 to pursue music and became a self-employed touring musician in my teens. At 20 (and totally skint!), I set up my first business from my bedroom with no investment or family funding. A music e-commerce platform and production house that grew to 25 staff within two years and the leading brand in its category internationally.

We were commissioned by Apple, Universal and Yamaha, with credits like Lady Gaga, Damian Marley and Chris Brown.

However, with all that success came a lot of stress, eventually leading to mental health struggles. After doing a lot of work on myself, I overcame my challenges and felt inspired to help others do the same.

Over the last 20 years, I’ve founded and led projects across the wellness, creative and mental health space, spanning charities, independent businesses and community projects.

Every venture I’ve set up has been about bringing people together or helping with creativity. I love mentoring, mental health and community work, and am deeply invested in personal growth, emotional intelligence, and building things that genuinely add value to people’s lives.

My interests include practising martial arts, playing carrom, and laughing as much as possible! I’m currently building Unseen, an events company, curating offline social experiences for meeting deeper people and forming meaningful friendships.


The misson

Most of my work comes back to the same thing: helping people build lives, relationships, and work that feel genuinely their own.
