A message from our Founder and CEO, Neil Harris 🩵
“Last night, I had the huge honour of attending 10 Downing Street for the launch of the UK Government’s Men’s Health Strategy.
This pivotal moment marks a significant step forward in recognising and addressing the mental and physical health challenges faced by men across the country.
I am so proud to have been part of this landmark event, representing Sport in Mind, and the power of sport and physical activity in saving and transforming men’s lives. Our work with and the , supporting men through accessible, inclusive sports programmes for mental health has never felt more vital and I am delighted to see the issue firmly on the agenda.
Last night, the nation finally shone a spotlight on a truth we at Sport in Mind have championed for years: men’s mental health is vital, and sport is not just a game - it’s a lifeline.
Through relentless dedication, we’ve witnessed how sport transforms lives, offering hope, recovery, and genuine human connection to those who need it most.
It was an honour to stand alongside others last night who recognise the importance of this too - collectively, we can make a huge difference and save so many lives”
