A new Jolly Good tea has landed on Woolworths shelves across the country, designed to boost morning moods and to raise funds for youth mental health. The English Breakfast brew comes from social enterprise MOOD tea, with 100% of the profits going towards funding programs to help fight the leading cause of death for young Australians, suicide.
The premium black tea blend, sourced from the Daintree region in Queensland, is said to be full of amino acids.
Since launching in 2021, MOOD Tea has reached almost 800 young people and funded four youth mental health programs through batyr and The Sebastian Foundation.
UnLtd and MOOD CEO Chris Freel says the tea allows drinkers to enjoy a delicious cuppa while helping to fund programs for young Australians, giving them the tools and skills they need to better manage their mental health.
“MOOD tea gives people an easy way to support youth mental health programs whilst also allowing them to sip on a delicious premium brew. Our newest English Breakfast blend has been sourced locally from the Daintree Region in QLD, so we are excited for the opportunity to also help fund local suppliers”, Mr Freel said.
“For each box of MOOD tea purchased, more young lives will benefit from the programs we fund via our incredible charity partners.”
batyr CEO Nic Brown says the programs funded by MOOD tea aim to educate students about the support networks and services available to them, empowering them to reach out for help when needed and support each other through tough times.
The Jolly Good Premium English Breakfast tea joins MOOD’s four other blends – ‘Happy Days’, ‘Get On Up’, ‘Be Kind, Unwind’ and ‘Sweet Lullaby’. MOOD tea bags are home compostable and biodegradable.
Available for purchase from the MOOD tea website, and Woolworths stores (RRP $5.50) nationally.
