► The Duke of Sussex and singer Ed Sheeran have teamed up for World Mental Health Day, urging people "to look out for anybody that might be suffering in silence".

Footage shared on the SussexRoyal Instagram account begins with a spoof misunderstanding between the red-headed pair, with Sheeran declaring he is there to write a song to raise awareness "for people like us".

Hundreds of school pupils greeted the Duke of Sussex as he arrived at Nottingham Academy, a school Harry has visited several times.

The Duke of Sussex first visited a group of pupils in a Nurture session run by Epic Partners.

Harry sat and spoke with year eight students who were working towards their exams.

The Duke of Sussex then moved on to a reluctant readers group and was greeted by a therapy dog.

The black Labradoodle, called Barney, was given a treat by Harry which was handed to him by the dog's owner and deputy head of house Claire Iwanekjo.

After moving on from the year 10 reluctant reading group, the Duke of Sussex sat in a year 11 assembly about mental health.

Harry urged all students to talk to each other and said he looked anxious at the list of exams the pupils had to do.

Before leaving the school, the Duke of Sussex was given a gift by a pupil for his son Archie.

Aleyna Genc, 14, gave Harry a dog which he said Archie would love.
