Charity teams up with coffee shops to raise mental health awareness
A charity is teaming up with coffee shops to raise awareness of mental health support.
No Limits, a charity in Southampton, is joining forces with independent coffee shops for Mental Health Awareness Week.
The collaboration aims to spread awareness about free mental health support.
Customers at participating coffee shops will receive specially designed takeaway cups featuring a breathing technique and a QR code providing more mental health tips and information.

The participating shops are Happy Bean Coffee Bar, Bedford Place; Retro Cafe, Bedford Place; The Nest, London Road; and Mettricks in Guildhall, Westquay, and Portswood Road.

Each shop has a limited supply of 150-200 cups and about 250 wallet cards, available on a first-come-first-serve basis.
