World Mental Health Day 2025 - Devon Cricket
www.devoncricket.co.uk
This summer, we launched our #StartTheConversation campaign, encouraging clubs to follow in the footsteps of leading clubs in Devon by raising the topic of mental wellbeing at club committee meetings.

#DevonCricket | #WellbeingMatters
Mental health is more than a small part of our lives; it's every moment of every day.

Today is #WorldMentalHealthDay, but mental health is important every day. Together, we can make sure everyone sees it that way.
