Monday 17 Jan is Brew Monday, and Wild Thyme Wholefoods in Southsea are supporting us.
On Brew Monday Wild Thyme Wholefoods are donating the proceeds of all the hot drinks they sell to Portsmouth Samaritans. We'd like to thank them very much for their support. If you can please do drop in and buy a cuppa. Their friendly shop is at 102 Palmerston Road in Southsea.
Brew Monday is the Samaritans takeover of ‘Blue Monday’ – the third Monday in January, which is often dubbed ‘the most difficult day of the year’ although there’s no scientific evidence to back this up.
At Samaritans we know there’s no such thing as ‘Blue Monday’ and that feeling low isn’t just reserved for Mondays or a random day in January.
On Brew Monday 2022, please remember that there’s always time for a cuppa and a catch-up. It doesn’t matter if it’s Monday morning or Saturday night, or if you’re drinking green tea, black coffee or orange juice. It doesn’t matter if you catch up virtually, in person or over the phone. If you’re sharing a cuppa and listening to someone, then you’re doing it right.
