This Blue Monday, remember to check in with yourself and those around you.

A small act of kindness or a simple conversation can make a big difference.
We’re here if you need support.

A new year often brings a quiet mix of hope and reflection. For some it is a fresh start and for others it is simply another step forward after a difficult season.

Wherever you find yourself today, we hope the year ahead offers steadier days, lighter moments and the support you need when life feels heavy.

From all of us at JB Shakespeare, we wish you a positive year to come.

This Christmas, we invite you to pay tribute to your loved ones with a personal dedication on our virtual Tree of Remembrance.

Your message will also be lovingly handwritten on a card and displayed on the Christmas Trees in our branch windows - a beautiful way to honour their memory during the festive season.

Share a picture or message or make a donation to support the Rowland Brothers Foundation, helping bereaved families in our community. For every donation made, the Rowland Brothers Group will match it. jbchristmasremembrance2025.dedicationpage.org

Today, we celebrate the volunteers who quietly lift communities, support grieving families and show up when it truly counts.

From those who help at local charities to the volunteers within the Rowland Brothers Foundation, your time and kindness change lives in ways that often go unseen.

Thank you for the heart you bring into the world.

Today, we pause to remember the lives cut short by HIV and AIDS, and to stand with every family who has carried that loss.

World AIDS Day reminds us how far we’ve come, yet how many people still face stigma, grief and silence.

We hold space for every story, every name and every memory that lives on in the people who loved them.

New Mats, Same Heart 💚

We’re proud to support the bowls club at Purley Sports Club by donating new bowling mats to replace the ones that had seen their fair share of ends.

This isn’t just about sport. It’s about people. About friendships formed over tea and roll-ups. About showing up, week after week, rain or shine. That’s what clubs like this are built on and that’s exactly why we wanted to help.

The players put their heart into the game, so it felt right to give something back. Here’s to more matches, more laughs, and more time spent doing what you love.

Thanks for having us along for the ride. We’ll be cheering you on from the sidelines.

There’s beauty in every wrinkle, every memory, every year lived boldly.

This past month, we celebrated lives well-lived, without apology.

No one should ever feel they need to shrink with age or fade quietly. Your story matters, right to the very last chapter.

Love leaves a legacy.

This Pride Month, we stand beside the LGBTQ+ community, remembering those we've lost, celebrating lives lived with truth, courage and colour.

Grief knows no labels. Neither does compassion.
We’re here for every family, every story, every love.

Happy belated birthday to our 6th generation family member and group commercial director, Joe Rowland! Hope you have a great birthday trip abroad!

Fun fact: Did you know Joe was actually a national swimmer when he was younger, placing 3rd in the country and holding multiple swimming records in London!

Some things in life can’t be fixed, but many can be prevented.

Men’s Health Week is a powerful reminder that checking in on your health isn’t weakness. It’s responsibility.

We see the impact of loss far too often. And while not every goodbye can be avoided, early detection and treatment can change outcomes for men and boys.

If you’re putting off that appointment, don’t.

Talk. Test. Take action. It might just save your life.
