Prince William's powerful plea

Prince William has launched a poignant initiative on World Suicide Prevention Day today. 

William's new campaign, On Your Side, aims to raise awareness and help sport organisations with the approaches needed for suicide prevention. The toolkit has been developed by The Royal Foundation in partnership with the British Standards Institution and Chasing the Stigma.

The royal released a video for the new campaign featuring England football captain Harry Kane and Formula One driver George Russell, who have been enlisted to speak on the issue. 

"Through my work on mental health, I have met people whose lives have been changed forever by suicide. But I have also met people whose lives have been saved because someone stepped in to help. Each of their experiences has had a profound impact on me," William has written in a foreword to the document. 

"In moments of need, the right support can make all the difference. We all have the power to help, and that’s why suicide prevention must be an important part of everyday sporting life." He adds: "I hope that On Your Side encourages everyone in sport, in every discipline and at every level, to make suicide prevention part of your game plan."
