YoungMinds

Alfie Watts has become the latest Ambassador for YoungMinds, the UK’s leading charity for children and young people’s mental health.

The 21-year-old is no stranger to the pressures that young people face having struggled with his mental health after the loss of his mother at a young age. During this time, Alfie found school particularly hard until an opportunity to become a European football scout became available, something that he went onto love.

Working with YoungMinds, Alfie wants to speak directly to young men and show them that they are not alone with their mental health. Young men still face stigma with their mental health and he hopes that by sharing his journey, others will see that hope and help is out there.
