ChariTEA of the quarter. The RCN Foundation has chosen tea blend, Deep Breaths to help raise funds for an Into Nursing Grant, a bursary designed to support a future nurse during their training and help create the next generation of nurses.  Profits from every online purchase of Deep Breaths throughout January– March 2024 will be donated to the chariTEA. All customers can also donate to The RCN Foundation through QR codes on posters in store. As well as the tea blend fundraising, on Random Act of Kindness Day, 17 February, Bird & Blend will offer a free cup of Love Hearts tea in stores for NHS nurses & midwives (and anyone showing NHS or Bluelights ID) where they can also pick up a note of support from Bird & Blend customers. From now, all Bird & Blend customers, that visit any of the 17 stores around the UK, will be encouraged to write a note of support on a paper heart for nurses, and midwives. All hearts will then be displayed in store ready for Random Acts of Kindness Day and for taking away by those NHS visitors that visit for their free Love Hearts tea. ## Advertisement --- ![](https://wfay6x.infiniteuploads.cloud/2024/01/image002-5.jpg) #### Rough Trade collaborates with Signature Brew for CALM Dry January fundraiser Throughout January, Rough Trade will raise money for charity partner [CALM](https://www.thecalmzone.net/) to celebrate Dry January. The initiative will see £1 per sale of any non-alcoholic beer purchased at in-store bars in East London, Bristol and Nottingham donated to the mental health charity. Heading up the offer is Signature Brew’s frontline non-alcoholic beer ‘Lo-Fi’, which will be served to customers on draught. Rough Trade teamed up with London-based brewery Signature Brew in March 2023, just weeks before Record Store Day, stocking a selection of its in-store bars with the brewery’s flagship collection exclusively on draught. Shortly after, in September 2023, the retailer partnered with CALM in support of its suicide prevention and mental health services, starting with a launch event fundraiser at its Rough Trade East store, followed by a recent prize draw and ongoing donation efforts that have raised over £7,000 for the charity. --- ![](https://wfay6x.infiniteuploads.cloud/2024/01/MW_BAG_MAIN.jpg) #### Tote bag sales to support Action for Children, Home-Start UK and Who Cares?
