Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes is among a host of Premier League stars who are supporting "Inside Matters", a campaign raising awareness of mental health and encouraging fans to check in on the wellbeing of others.

To help initiate conversations around mental health, players and managers from all Premier League clubs including Fernandes, Aston Villa striker Ollie Watkins and Brentford head coach Thomas Frank have taken time out to get involved.

In the video above you can watch them calling friends, former team-mates and family members.

Their message is clear: Make a difference and make a call.

Professional support available

To help fans access professional support, the Premier League is collaborating with Shout, a free, confidential 24/7 text support service for anyone in the UK who is struggling with their mental health, run by the charity Mental Health Innovations.

Fans can text "SHOUT" to 85258 to receive round-the-clock support from trained volunteers, supervised and supported in real time by an expert clinical team.

Through the partnership, the League is providing funding for Shout’s helpline services over the weekend and during Mental Health Awareness Week.

You can get also access mental-health advice and resources through the Premier League's own Stay Well Hub here.
