Tackling the Stigma: Sky Sports documentary investigates football’s issues with mental health

Posted on: May 18, 2023

Watch ‘Tackling the Stigma’ at 10.30pm on Thursday May 18 on Sky Sports Premier League and Sky Sports Football, and also On Demand.

Sky Sports has produced a documentary, Tackling the Stigma, in support of Mental Health Awareness Week 2023.

The three-part, hour-long deep dive, narrated by Martin Tyler, investigates football’s issues with mental health, exploring what clubs and players are doing to change the narrative around men’s mental health.

In a series of interviews conducted by Patrick Davidson, the first of their kind by top level footballers, the documentary highlights how far the industry has changed in the last decade.

Speaking in depth with current Premier League players Harry Kane, Ben Chilwell and Jordan Pickford, we discover how they manage their wellbeing. We also hear from former players Lee Hendrie and Kieron Dyer on how they suffered during their careers, with little treatment or support available.
