The Ben Raemers Foundation - 'Right 'Ere My Son!'
Ryan Gray has put together a very special edit of some of the times he spent filming with great friend Ben Raemers over the last few years.
In May 2019, at the age of 28, professional skateboarder Ben Raemers took his own life.
His passion for life and skateboarding has always been contagious. Ben will be remembered by all as a loving son, brother, friend and inspiration.
Help us to continue his legacy by improving mental health and wellbeing in the skateboarding community. The Ben Raemers Foundation seeks to raise awareness around the tools, techniques and skills that can be used within the community to address issues surrounding mental health and suicide.
The foundation aims to bring awareness of mental health issues and suicide to the forefront. It wants to end the stigma and burden that so often clouds these issues. We do this in memory of the absolute legend that we lost in Ben.
