Brew Monday 2025: Small Gesture, Big Impact. On January 20th, 2025, Brew Monday encourages connection over a cuppa to fight loneliness. Commercial catering can be stressful. Use Brew Monday to build a more positive workplace.

The Samaritans created Brew Monday. While they lead the initiative, everyone is welcome to join. The goal is to raise mental health awareness and connect communities.

Here are a few ideas to incorporate Brew Monday into your catering business:

Host a “Brew Monday” staff gathering: Dedicate a short break for staff to enjoy a cup of tea or coffee together. Encourage open and honest conversations, fostering a sense of camaraderie and understanding.

Offer customers a “Brew Monday” special: Consider offering a discounted coffee or tea, with a portion of the proceeds going to a local mental health charity.

Promote mental well-being resources: Display posters or flyers with information about mental health support services available to your staff and the wider community.

Encourage customer interaction: Initiate friendly conversations with customers, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. A simple “How are you doing today?” can go a long way.

By embracing the spirit of Brew Monday, you can demonstrate your commitment to the well-being of your team and create a more positive and supportive environment for both staff and customers. Remember, a small gesture of kindness can make a big difference. Find more information about Brew Monday on The Samaritans’ official website.
