With the festive period well and truly behind us, January can often seem like a gloomy month, with this Monday, (20th January) becoming known as Blue Monday – thought to be the most depressing day of the year. 

However, to help you beat the January blues, we’re showcasing our latest feel good discounts to ensure you can get the best deals available to you.

But that’s not all! We’re also giving away 10 complimentary cupcake deliveries for you and your team to enjoy. Simply head over to our Facebook page this Monday to find out more.

Jasmine Green, Member Services Champion at Blue Light Card, tells us why this Blue Monday, it pays to be positive. She said:

“Our frontline workers support us when we’re at our most vulnerable, throughout the most difficult circumstances and often sacrifice a lot to do so. They cheer us up when we’re at our very lowest, and we are incredibly thankful.

“We hope that these discounts mean they’re able to treat themselves and their loved ones this Blue Monday. By getting involved in our cupcake giveaway, they can potentially win some sweet treats as well!

""We’re also encouraging the Blue Light Card community to do something to spread happiness and maybe put a smile on someone else's face too.”

Boost your mood by spreading a little kindness this Monday too. Here are some of our favourite activities to uplift your upcoming week: 

Pay a compliment

Sometimes a simple, “I appreciate you”, or “I love your outfit” can go a long way in making someone’s day.

Write a postcard

Everyone loves receiving a handwritten letter through their letter box.

Pick up litter

Most cities and towns have organised litter picks which is a great way to meet people. There is nothing stopping you from heading alone out armed with gloves and a bin bag as well.

Volunteer at a charity

This could be for one day, one week, or one year. Whatever time you can spare, will be appreciated. Give a local charity a call or visit their website and see what you can do for them.

Get out into the garden (weather permitting)

Gardening is proven to increase serotonin levels, even if you don’t have a garden, potting some plants in your home or getting creative in window boxes or balconies can have the same effect.
