🧵 After seeing a sharp increase in calls to our helpline around money, we knew we needed to understand the impact of the cost of living crisis on people’s heads. (1/5)
Fun Fact: Blue Monday was actually made up by travel agents to help sell holidays in January.
Sure, January can be hard but you can struggle on any day of the year.
Big up anyone who’ll use the day as a chance to shout about our services. But just know we’re here on miserable winter days AND shitty summer ones - the ones which show up without notice, or the ones that have stretched into weeks, months, or even years.
We are delighted to be partnering with @theCALMzone on a release of a brand new t-shirt featuring the iconic die-cut sleeve design and the original synth used to write Blue Monday. £10 from each t-shirt purchased will be donated to CALM.
