It may be surprising, but the holiday season can often feel lonely and alienating for some. If you need a mental health boost ahead of the Chinese New Year festive season (or simply interested in learning more), then it will help to participate in The Social Space’s Mental Health Campaign. From January 20 to February 9, the café-retail concept will be hosting pop-ups in collaboration with organisations like Us Therapy, the Happiness Initiative, iASH, and LACA Art Academy. At the event, you’ll get the opportunity to speak to clinical psychologists about your mental health concerns, join open discussions about Singapore’s hustle culture, or destress through art workshops.
For the duration of the campaign, The Social Space will also be running two thoughtful activations: How Are You, Really where customers are encouraged to drop a coffee bean into one of three jars to express how they're feeling for the day, and A Pick-Me-Up Drink where every beverage order will come with a small note of encouragement.
