Launch of #HeadsTogether campaign

Their Royal Highnesses are keen to build on the great work that is already taking place across the country, to ensure that people feel comfortable with their everyday mental wellbeing, feel able to support their friends and families through difficult times, and that stigma no longer prevents people getting help they need.

The campaign launch at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in east London showcased the innovative work of the Heads Together charity partners who have achieved so much in tackling stigma, raising awareness, and providing vital help for people with mental health challenges.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Prince Harry made a speech at the launch. 

The team covers a wide range of mental health issues that are close to The Duke and Duchess and Prince Harry's passions. They are:

• Anna Freud Centre
• Best Beginnings
• CALM – The Campaign Against Living Miserably
• Contact (a military mental health coalition)
• Mind
• Place2Be
• The Mix
• YoungMinds

The campaign will be open for other organisations to join in the months ahead and will be supported by The Royal Foundation of The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Prince Harry.

Heads Together also has the huge privilege of being the 2017 Virgin Money London Marathon Charity of the Year, providing a positive platform for energetic and positive fundraising and awareness. Next year, hundreds of runners will hit the streets of London, to help end stigma on mental health for good.
