Harry Kane Launches Foundation To Address Perceptions On Mental Health

Tottenham striker Harry Kane has launched a foundation that seeks to change perceptions surrounding mental health.

The Harry Kane Foundation will use the England captain’s status to help promote positive habits that could end stigma bordering on the subject.

He announced the foundation’s launch on the morning of Mental Health Day on Monday.

Kane has previously supported mental health charities using his shirt sponsorship at Leyton Orient and is still working with partners to make the cause successful.

“I am delighted to launch my foundation today on World Mental Health Day,” he said.

“It marks the start of my journey to learn more about mental health and use my position hopefully to encourage others to look after their mental health, be their best and not be afraid to ask for help.

“While I’m far from an expert on the subject, I’ve learnt that there is a growing number of people who need to learn positive coping strategies and build resilience to deal with adversity.

“I am excited to be working in support of some amazing organisations and causes close to my heart.

“I’ve really enjoyed working on all the activations we are launching today and I’m looking forward sharing other projects coming soon.”
