Mims Davies MP joins Brew Monday event with Samaritans in Parliament

Mims was pleased to join the Brew Monday event taking place in Parliament recently.

‘Blue Monday’, is thought to be the most depressing day of the year… but spoiler alert: it isn’t!

Mims would like to encourage all constituents of East Grinstead, Uckfield, the villages and beyond to speak up and spread the message about Brew Monday, and suicide prevention and check in on your family, friends, colleagues, and neighbours.

Reaching out to someone could help them know they are valued and someone cares. If you’ve noticed someone has gone quiet in the group chat or you haven’t heard from them in a while, please do reach out to them and check in.

A simple message can mean a lot to someone who is going through a difficult time.

Mims Davies MP said:

“I was very pleased to join the Brew Monday event in Parliament marking Brew Monday - Samaritans’ takeover of the so-called “Blue Monday” - and discuss how we can work together to reduce the number of people who die by suicide.

The truth is that people can struggle on any day of the year, and it is important we reach out to those we love and check in on our colleagues, neighbours, and friends ensuring they know there is help available and we are thinking of them.

So, among the chaos of everyday life, why not find time for a cuppa and a chat with family, friends or colleagues?”
