Today is World Mental Health Day. To mark the occasion and kick off his own campaign to end the stigma surrounding mental health, Rizzle Kicks star Jordan Stephens has created #IAMWHOLE.

While we run our own UOKM8 mental health campaign, it's important to take stock and not be precious about content - ending the stigma is the most important thing.

To that end, we were sent the media exclusive of the music video Jordan has created with the help of actual mental health sufferers as well as celebrities James Corden and Ed Sheeran.

Check it out below...

Research published by YMCA, one of the world's largest youth charities, has revealed that one in three 11-24-year-olds say they experience the stigma that surrounds mental health, including social exclusion and verbal abuse.

More than half say the hurtful behaviour originates from their friends.

It's not 'soft' or 'weak' to ask your friends if they're OK.
