Sound of Support at the Heads Up FA Cup Final | Hussain Manawer

The Heads Up FA Cup Final is the culmination of The FA and Heads Together’s season-long Heads Up campaign. Spearheaded by HRH The Duke of Cambridge, Heads Up has been working to harness the influence and popularity of football to encourage more people to feel comfortable talking about, and take action to improve, their mental health. The circumstances surrounding this poignant fixture are unprecedented - this was the first FA Cup Final to be held behind-closed-doors – and so, in recognition of the stadium being silent, and fans supporting from home, the theme of the game was the #SoundOfSupport. Wembley Stadium was silent, but the conversation around mental health was louder than ever. Fans were urged to show the ‘sound of support’ – and to make sure it was heard by those who need it. Ahead of kick-off, we held a powerful 60 second #SoundOfSupport moment dedicated to Heads Up. Unique artificial crowd noise played in the stadium, created from a soundscape of real mental health conversations with fans and players. The crowd noise was introduced to the players and fans by a rallying spoken word piece from poet, mental health champion, and long term supporter of The Royal Foundation's mental health work, Hussain Manawer.
