Palace Women help football unite to kick-off biggest ever mental health conversation

Crystal Palace Women is uniting with football clubs across the country to kick-off the biggest ever conversation on mental health.

For two weekends in February, every women's team from across the country's footballing pyramid will dedicate their matches to Heads Up, a partnership between The FA and Heads Together.

Spearheaded by HRH The Duke of Cambridge, Heads Up aims to harness the influence and popularity of football to normalise the conversation around mental health.

The Heads Up Weekends will highlight the power of talking as a way to support one another and dispel the stigma surrounding mental health, with activity planned at fixtures across the men and women’s football calendar.
