Good morning Cheapskater!

Welcome to our first email of 2024 - we’re so pleased to have you here with us. As gloomy as the weather may be, I imagine that a handful of the events we’ve selected below will tempt you to head out and about this week - especially as they’re all totally free!

This week, we’ve partnered with Thrive LDN - a citywide movement to improve the mental health of all Londoners - ahead of Great Mental Health Day 2024 in London. On Friday January 26, Thrive LDN and partners are organising a series of free mental health-themed events which will be held across the capital and virtually, from a spoken word poetry workshop to a mindful movement session and a free film screening. Find out how you can get involved here.

Have a good one!

PS: ICYMI, we featured broadcast journalist, designer and creative Jess Alavi-Ellis (who you might recognise from Insta) on our blog a couple of weeks ago. Check out her Cheapskate guide to Bounds Green here - and reply to this email if you have suggestions for more Londoners we should interview!
