At Initial Incentives, we know the value of connection, especially during the cold and sometimes challenging winter months. That’s why on Monday, January 20th, it’s all about encouraging people to come together, check in on each other, and share a conversation over a warm drink.
What Is Brew Monday?
Brew Monday is a positive twist on the concept of “Blue Monday,” often thought to be the most depressing day of the year. Instead of focusing on the gloom, Brew Monday flips the narrative, turning it into a chance to connect, support each other, and share kindness.
The initiative encourages people to pause, take a break, and enjoy a cup of tea, coffee, or any favourite drink with friends, colleagues, or loved ones. It’s a reminder that even a small chat over a brew can make a big difference to someone’s day.
Why It Matters
During this time of year, many people feel isolated or weighed down by post-holiday blues, or the long winter days. Brew Monday is an opportunity to combat these feelings by fostering genuine connections and reminding people that they’re not alone.
At Initial Incentives, we believe in the power of meaningful interactions and know that a little thoughtfulness can go a long way—whether it’s a simple message, a shared laugh, or a personalised gift.
How You Can Get Involved
Participating in Brew Monday is easy and impactful. Here are a few ideas to help you join the movement:
- Host a Brew Break: Organise a small gathering at your office or community space. Provide a selection of teas, coffees, and biscuits, and create a welcoming atmosphere for conversation.
- Send a Thoughtful Gift: Surprise a colleague with a branded mug, a bag of their favourite coffee, or a personalised thermos. Small gestures can have a big impact.
- Connect Virtually: If meeting in person isn’t possible, set up a virtual coffee chat. Even a short video call can help someone feel more connected.
