State of Mind Sport will be celebrating our first 15 years when we land in 2026
STATE OF MIND SPORT is a multi-award-winning charity that harnesses the power of sport to promote positive mental fitness among athletes, fans, and communities — ultimately helping to prevent suicide.
We raise awareness of mental fitness challenges and deliver education sessions across sport, business, education, and community groups. By using sport professionals and their lived experiences, we open up conversations that inspire people to become:
• Mentally fit
• Perform better
• Happier
Why It Matters
• Mental injuries affect 1 in 4 employees.
• A mentally fit workforce is more resilient, productive, and fulfilled.
• Our sessions help your people:
o Feel good
o Work better
o Live well
