Fashion brand partners up with anti-bullying charity in support of Mental Health Awareness Week!

This past year has been a difficult one for everyone, with people’s mental health affected due to varying factors, whether that’s a change in working and home environment or due to ongoing national restrictions impacting our daily lives. Now the world is opening back up again, we can spend overdue time with our loved ones, catching up on missed lockdown moments and having human interaction that we’ve desperately missed.

However, as our social lives begin to fill up again after months of zero plans, it can become overwhelming at times and may cause episodes of anxiety, but just remember – you’re not alone.

In support of Mental Health Awareness Week (10th – 16th May), fashion brand ISAWITFIRST has teamed up with global youth charity, Ditch the Label to create The Gratitude Planner range to inspire people to write down their daily affirmations, with 100% of profits going towards the vital work the charity carries out.

This collection of planners consists of a Happiness Planner, Gratitude Planner, and a Reflections Planner, which encourage people to let go of some anxiety and write down exactly how they feel and what they are thankful for.

Looking after your mental wellbeing is extremely important, not just throughout the pandemic, but the aftermath as well. Taking time to reflect on yourself and what truly makes you happy, should be a top priority.

Liam Hackett, Global CEO of Ditch the Label said: “I am delighted that ISAWITFIRST are supporting Ditch the Label with such a fantastic product to promote positive mental health and wellbeing. The funds raised from the campaign will help fund our crucial work in supporting young people through the difficult challenges that they face during Mental Health Awareness Week and beyond.”

Leanne Holmes, Brand Director at ISAWITFIRST said: “As a brand that aims to be accessible to all, we wanted to ensure that not only do our customers look good on the outside, but more importantly they feel good on the inside too. That’s why in support of Ditch the Label and Mental Health Awareness Week, we’ll be donating all profits from the collection to help this amazing global youth charity. We hope this planner range offers some level of comfort to our customers, as the weeks/months become much busier with restrictions easing.”
