SportsceneAvailable for over a year
We're used to talking about athletes who've been through the wars. Broken bones, torn muscles and strained tendons are just part and parcel of playing sport for a living.

Jersey Reds player Conor Joyce thinks we're not - and has started an organisation to raise awareness of mental illness in the sporting world. He's been speaking with our Sport Producer Jack Murley.
