During Mental Health Awareness Week 2026, Sport in Mind is launching a powerful new national creative project that brings together sport, mental health, and visual storytelling. Mental health awareness is growing - but awareness alone isn’t enough.

The project asks one important question: What does taking action for mental health through movement actually look like?

Through a striking portrait photography gallery, we will showcase individuals, partners, and communities who use sport and movement as meaningful, accessible acts of action to support their wellbeing.

You can find more information about the exhibition here:
