HEADS UP: Take A Minute

HRH The Duke of Cambridge and football legends champion mental health on Emirates FA Cup third round weekend

  • HRH The Duke of Cambridge has narrated a powerful new film starring famous faces from the world of football including Frank Lampard, Harry Maguire and Alex Scott, to encourage fans to take simple steps to look after their mental health
  • The film has been released as a collaboration between Public Health England’s Every Mind Matters, a groundbreaking mental health platform, and Heads Up, a season-long partnership between Heads Together and The FA, spearheaded by HRH The Duke of Cambridge
  • The one minute film will be played to millions as kick-off times across all Emirates FA Cup Third Round fixtures are delayed by one-minute to focus on mental health
  • Research shows just under half of men (45%) who have experienced early signs of mental health concerns in the last year, have never taken self-care actions to manage it (compared to 31% of women)

In an historic first, all 32 Emirates FA Cup Third Round fixtures this weekend will be delayed by one minute.
