The Minster for Digital and the Creative Industries, Margot James MP, also supported #MentalHealthMinute.

Margot James said: “Heard the #MentalHealthMinute moments ago in the car – so inspiring to hear the radio industry come together to encourage people to talk about mental health. People should never feel that they can’t talk about theirs. #ItsOkayToSay #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek”
