Monday 17th January 2022 is Brew Monday. Our alternative to Blue Monday! Grab a cuppa and team up for a chat online.
Please, if you can, help support us at Tamworth Samaritans. Thank you.
Brew Monday is one of Samaritans' annual events to encourage people to join up, share thoughts and listen to each other over a hot drink. Winter can be a difficult season for so many and talking to someone is one of the ways to help. This year may be similar to last January 2021 where people met up online via zoom unlike the traditional January when volunteers greeted travellers at railway stations and gave out tea bags and information about the Samaritans.
As meeting up outside your household may or may not be not permitted we are suggesting people meet up online, possibly using Zoom or other video conferencing software (Messenger, WhatsApp etc). The free version of Zoom allows meetings to last up to 45 minutes, but I've been told they last longer on your first few chats ;). If restrictions allow then it would be wonderful to meet up in person, safely.
Brew Monday can be any day of course! So how about contacting that family member or friend or work colleague and suggest a chat and listen over a hot drink?
Remember our services are open as usual so if you are struggling and you'd like someone to talk to and listen then please ring us on 116 123 or email [email protected].
Thank you. Take care.
