“We’re all connected. And sometimes just talking about how you’re feeling can make a big difference,” said Prince William in the video.
“So right now, let’s join together across the UK and reach out to someone.”
“If you’re struggling, it’s important to talk about it,” added the Duchess of Cambridge.
“Or if someone you know is acting differently, it’s OK to ask how they are. Use this moment to send a message.”

“This is a significant moment,” added Anthony Joshua, who kicked off the video. “Every station in the country is broadcasting this message.
“You are connected to 20 million people by the power of radio for this year’s mental health minute”.
“We’re living through a time which is taking its toll on everyone in different ways,” added New Rules hitmaker Dua Lipa.
“We can all feel scared, alone, confused…”.
“And that’s okay,” chimed in Doctor Who star David Tennant.
“Right now, we all need each other, more than ever – and in the weeks and months ahead of us, we will all have an important role to play in being there for one another.”
Tottenham Hotspur’s Harry Kane added, “Whether you’re uniting in applause on a Thursday night; smiling at a neighbour’s rainbow filled window; or listening to the radio at home or at work – remember you’re not alone”.
