Lidl Ireland recently launched 'The Bakery' pop-up as a place for people to do more than just come together to enjoy a variety of baked goods. The new pop-up space has been created in collaboration with charity partner Jigsaw, the National Centre for Youth Mental Health, to offer a range of events centered on mental health awareness.
At the pop-up bakery coffee shop, visitors will be able to enjoy evenings of meditation, laughter yoga and other mental health-related activities. All proceeds from the events at The Bakery are set to be donated directly to Jigsaw.
Just last year, Marks & Spencer launched its 'Frazzled Cafes' with a similar mission centered on mental health, community and supporting well-being.
