Mental Health charity Voices of Hope presents their latest campaign, Behind The Jersey. A campaign that aims to bring awareness to mental health in a sporting world. Highlighting the challenges - behind the jersey.

Sports people globally, no matter what level, have huge pressures from society to be great. They are expected to rise above, to excel, to win, to work harder, to be tougher and to be happy. On the field or off the field - all the time. Society doesn’t recognise these people are real people - and that’s our problem, globally.

The campaign will explore sports peoples real struggles that are hidden behind their jersey. In this series we speak to All Black Izzy Dagg, Black Fern Niall Williams, Basketballer Tai Wynyard and 100 metre sprinter Symone Tafuna’i.

Our sports people are real people too - it’s not weak to speak.
