“As someone who battled with post-natal depression in silence when I had my twin girls, I want to try and help as many people as possible who are living with their own mental health battle.”

Every month, customers will receive their choice of ground coffee, beans or coffee pods as well as a selection of chocolate from an independent British chocolatier. Each box costs £20.

For the first box, Coffee & Kin has chosen fellow North East business, Chocolateeha.
