Isle of Man Samaritans wants to break the myth around 'the most depressing day of the year'
Isle of Man Samaritans is urging people to help dispel the myth of 'Blue Monday' on 19 January.
The Manx charity wants the community to break open the biscuits and talk about their feelings over a cuppa.
A team from Samaritans will be based in Tesco's Victoria Road store on Monday between 12 noon and 6pm to chat to members of the public and answer questions about the charity's work.
Isle of Man Samaritans Branch Director, Deanna Douglas says the idea that Blue Monday is anything other than a marketing ploy needs to be dispelled:
Confusion over cause of issues for IOM residents selling on Vinted
Peel Commissioners first to announce rate increases
Price of cod on par with sirloin steak, says chippy owner
'A number of' bladed items handed in as part of police amnesty
