This year Blue Monday was on the 16th of January. Blue Monday is known to be the most depressing day of the year.
We also know that this time of year is particularly difficult for mental health and depression. We wanted to do something fun and have something people could look forward too. Last year we had our first Blue January party which everyone loved, this year we had bingo, dancing, karaoke and everyone enjoyed some slightly strange blue food.
It was nice to see our community come together having fun to change Blue Monday into something different and positive.
