While it is important to recognise and seek support when you are feeling blue, we’d like to support the effort today to banish #BlueMonday!

Apparently the phrase was created and promoted by a travel company marketing campaign and doesn’t have statistical basis.

The Samaritans are working on turning #BlueMonday into #BrewMonday…

Now more than ever it's important to stay connected 💚

That's why we're encouraging you to share a virtual cuppa and a chat with your friends, family, or colleagues to turn #BlueMonday into #BrewMonday today ☕ 💬 https://t.co/9jxW7LUwHV pic.twitter.com/8ZA4Sna92X

Mind Leeds are encouraging people to wear something bright and funky to turn #BlueMonday into a #MulticolouredMonday!

Visit:  www.leedsmind.org.uk/event/multicoloured-monday-2021/

or follow @LeedsMind

There is no singular date more depressing than another, we can all experience the blues at any time of year and there is lots of support available in Leeds for when you do.

The last year has been extremely tough on us all, and on some more than others, but there are also many reasons to grateful and thankful for what we have and what we share.

So make a brew – put on something colourful – and connect with someone this #NonBlueMonday!
