Sport having a positive impact on mental health
Yorkshire Sport Foundation are one of a number of partners who are involved in the Mind Sport and Activity Network across Yorkshire and the Humber.
The network have produced 4 videos, which show the positive impact that being active is having on peoples mental health. For example the first video is by a man called Babur from Huddersfield who references how services have really helped and how climbing has been one of the vehicles to help his mental health. All four videos are very different and reference isolation, loneliness etc.
