World Mental Health Day!
World Mental Health Day is on 10th October every year and this year is themed around workplace health.
If work is getting on top of you, there are lots of ways you can take care of your mental health outside of work hours - take a look at some of our recommendations!
Tip Number One: Colouring
Did you know colouring has been proven to help improve mindfulness? Get your colouring pencils and take some time to yourself, with a huge range of colouring books available in-store at The Works.
Tip Number Two: Herbal Tea
Nothing helps your head quite like a good night's sleep! Chamomile contains apigenin, which is an antioxidant that can help you fall asleep more easily, and is our top pick for a cosy night in.
Head down to Holland and Barrett to pick up your herbal tea of choice!
Tip Number Three: Reading
Reading allows you to distract your mind from the stresses that are happening around you and allows you to escape reality!
WHSmith has a wide range of different books with various genres for whatever your preference!

Pickleball is a trending game that we're loving, why not pick it up from The Entertainer and try it for yourself?
Tip Number Five: Walking
It is proven that walking can help to increase energy, boost your mood and reduce anxiety - plus nothing beats a bit of fresh air to blow away the cobwebs!
