£2.50 DONATION FROM EACH SHAKER TO MENTAL HEALTH UK
Each time you refuel your body, remember to refuel your mind.
We've worked on a collection of shakers for World Mental Health Day (10th October), that has been designed with this in mind — each shaker representing either positivity, calm, strength or revitalisation. A problem shared is a problem halved. So, we’re donating £2.50 from every shaker sold to Mental Health UK to enable them to support more people affected by mental health problems.
We are stronger together

Mental Health UK Partnership
We've partnered with Mental Health UK which directly supports those affected by mental health problems, but also assists with support groups to help the friends and families of those who suffer with their mental health, as well as the wider community and work-place organisations.
Working across the UK, Mental Health UK brings together experts from four national mental health charities to educate the public on mental health and provide advice, information and support. Some of this information can be found their digital information guides ‘On the Inside’ that tackle the myths surrounding mental health.

FAQs It’s important to look after yourself, but sometimes we don’t have all the answers. So, we’ve answered a few questions that you may have around mental health.
Surround yourself with people and activities that make you happy. See your friends, complete mindfulness exercises and reflect on the positives. Work to improve your resilience.
Go for a run, push yourself, reach your PBs, look after your macros. An exercise and eating routine can help your mental health. If you look after your body, your mind will begin to look after itself.
Working out with a partner improves quality of life and reduces stress far more than individual workouts.
Unwind with music or a podcast after a long day. Go for a walk or read a book. Whatever works for you.
It’s important to talk through your concerns with someone you’re comfortable with, this could be friends or family. Alternatively, you should always speak to your GP about any concerns you have.
