Sporting Minds UK
Loughborough Sport is further strengthening its mental health support to its student-athletes through a partnership with Sporting Minds UK
Mental Health support from Sporting Minds UK
Sporting Minds UK is a registered charity that seeks to raise awareness and provide support for positive mental health in sportspeople aged 16 to 30 where they can access free, fast and confidential private mental health support.
Mental Health Advisory Board
Loughborough Sport has formed an advisory board across its clubs which will improve mental health awareness and education, increase support and mental health training, create, and deliver fundraising events, and tackle the stigma around mental health.
Athlete stories
Current and past athletes share their personal stories. Our aim is to normalise the issue of mental health in sport to make it easier to talk about and remove any stigma. Our partnership ensures that our athletes have access to free private mental healthcare, without waiting lists, to make sure that if they need support it is there for them.
