The prince added they will talk about mental health toolboxes which can provide people with coping skills and resources to alleviate anxiety and depression. “You could be living one life one minute and something massively changes and you realize you don’t necessarily have the tools or the experience to be able to tackle that,” he said.
Kate also told listeners that she would “love to know” how they look after their own mental health, which was followed by a guest then explaining his approach to the royal couple. “There’s no right or wrong, that’s the thing as well. Different things will work for different people,” she said.
On the visit, Aled Haydn Jones, head of BBC Radio One, said: “What was discussed today will resonate with so many of our listeners and it means so much to us that we can all work together to help tackle the stigma around this issue.”
Danielle Dwyer, editor of BBC Radio One’s Newsbeat, added: “Talking about mental wellbeing without stigma or judgment is so key and it’s brilliant to welcome the Prince and Princess of Wales to our reporting team for the day, to join us in such a vital conversation.”
