In the Atrium of the City Hall in The Hague there is a Yellow Bench. This Yellow Bench is from the Invictus Games The Hague. Invictus Games is an international sporting event for physically and/or mentally injured military personnel that took place in Zuiderpark in May 2022.

The Yellow Bench is a movement stimulating human connection by facilitating meaningful conversations through programs around a simple yellow bench. From legacy to future fame. A yellow bench. A simple yellow bench. Because of its symbolic value. Because it facilitated wonderful conversations. The idea has been embraced worldwide.

The yellow bench is the legacy and a gift of the Invictus Community to the world. Conny Wenting, CEO of the Invictus Games The Hague and the Founder of The Yellow Bench and Patron of the Invictus Games, Prince Harry, discussed the idea to give international fame to The Yellow Bench. In- and outside the Invictuscommunity, to bottle the Invictus spirit and showcase the power of speaking up to improve your mental health. Why we do it The world needs people appreciating people. When people respect, admire and inspire each other, we all thrive.
