Browns Goes Green for Mental Health Awareness Week

The team at Browns Distribution came together for Wear it Green Day, raising an incredible £233 for the Mental Health Foundation.

Held at Distribution House, the day brought the team together in support of an important cause, with green outfits across the site, a team raffle with prizes up for grabs, and Domino’s pizza to keep everyone fuelled throughout the day.

Wear it Green Day is part of Mental Health Awareness Week, a UK-wide campaign organised by the Mental Health Foundation. The campaign takes place every May and aims to highlight the importance of good mental health, challenge stigma, and encourage practical action to support wellbeing. 

The Mental Health Foundation has been leading Mental Health Awareness Week for the last 25 years. As the only UK charity solely focused on preventing poor mental health, the organisation works through research, campaigning, and practical programmes to help build and protect good mental health.

Wear it Green Day encourages schools, workplaces, communities, families, and friends to wear green, raise awareness, start conversations, and fundraise to support the Mental Health Foundation’s vital work. For Browns Distribution, it was a fantastic opportunity to bring the team together while supporting a cause that affects so many people across the UK.

Thanks to the generosity of everyone who got involved, donated, wore green, and supported the raffle, the team raised £233, smashing the target that had been set.

From green outfits and prize draws to shared conversations and a sense of team spirit, the day was a brilliant reminder that even small actions can make a meaningful difference.

A huge thank you to every colleague who took part, donated, wore green, or helped make the event such a success.

At Browns Distribution, we’re proud to support initiatives that bring people together, encourage positive conversations, and help make a difference both inside and outside the workplace.
