Tower and Town, February 2021 (view the full edition)Samaritans Turning The Blues Into BrewsSwindon & District Samaritans are encouraging people to beat the winter blues and COVID by staying connected with a virtual warming cuppa and a chat over the long cold months for Brew Monday. Brew Monday kicked off on Monday 18 January 2021: the third Monday in January is typically known as “Blue Monday” for being the most difficult day of the year. Samaritans are turning the blues to brews by encouraging friends, family and workmates to reach out to someone for a virtual cuppa and a chat as well as raising vital funds for Swindon & District Samaritans. Now, more than ever, sharing a cuppa is more than a drink – it’s about reaching out, checking in and staying connected. If you need to know more, please go to: fundraiserswindonsamaritans @btconnect.com If you brew up to chase those blues away and can support Swindon & District Samaritans, please text to donate. To donate £5, text BREWMONDAY 5 to 70490. Texts cost £5 plus one standard rate message and you’ll be opting in to hear more about our work and fundraising via telephone and SMS. If you’d like to give £5 but do not wish to receive marketing communications, text BREWMONDAYNOINFO 5 to 70490. Samaritans are always here every hour of every day of the year. Talk to us any time you like, in your own way and off the record about whatever’s getting to you: |
