Yesterday (World Mental Health Day) was truly humbling as friends, friends of friends, relatives, neighbours, and strangers answered the call to leave bunches of flowers and plants for strangers to find. They were left at bus stops, benches, and walls everywhere from Dundee to Marmaris. I heard from flower bombers all over the UK and have even received messages from delighted recipients amazed to have found them. On Friday a lady I’d never met before came into the shop with a bunch of flowers from her garden that she wanted me to hand out. She told me her mother and brother both suffered from mental health issues and her homemade bunch was her gesture towards the day. I made sure that her bunch was the first to be flower bombed. I’m grateful to so many but Helen Harte and Charly Harte truly outstanding, their social media skills and calmness are astounding. Have a great week.
