The Danielle Lloyd x Oh Arthur<br />

collection for Mind will be available<br />

to buy at www.oharthur.co.uk<br />

coaborating to raise money for<br />

mental health charity, Mind...<br />

Award-winning personalised clothing brand<br />

Oh Arthur has announced a second collaboration with<br />

model and former Miss Great Britain, Danielle Lloyd<br />

– with all proceeds being donated to mental health<br />

support charity, MIND.<br />

Mother-of-four Danielle and Oh<br />

Arthur founder, Emma Jacklin, have<br />

designed a range of eye-catching,<br />

brightly-coloured tees for children<br />

and adults, each one emblazoned<br />

with a different message of positivity.<br />

The idea behind the collection is to<br />

raise awareness of mental health<br />

issues and encourage people to talk<br />

about their experiences without fear of prejudice or judgment.<br />

Prices start from £14 with all proceeds being donated to Mind,<br />

a charity that provides advice and support to empower anyone<br />

experiencing a mental health problem. Mind also campaigns to<br />

improve services, raise awareness and promote understanding.<br />

“Having suffered with anxiety and depression in the past, I<br />

know how lonely and isolating it can be to experience mental<br />

health issues,” explains Danielle. “It’s something that<br />

many people hide, even from their closet family and<br />

friends, so the work that Mind do in offering both<br />

emotional and practical support and advice to those<br />

in need is absolutely invaluable.<br />

“I knew I wanted to do something to raise money and<br />

awareness for the charity and considering my existing<br />

collaboration with Oh Arthur, a new collection to<br />

promote Mind’s messages and raise much-needed funds felt<br />

like the perfect way to do it. If we can help just one person feel<br />

better, I’ll be very happy indeed!”<br />

“This feels like such an important and relevant topic right now,”<br />

adds Emma. “There is definitely a positive shift in the way the<br />

world views mental<br />

health, but there is<br />

still a long way to go<br />

and we wanted to do<br />

something to help<br />

promote the messages<br />

of positivity, honesty<br />

and acceptance that<br />

are at the core of what<br />

Mind aims to achieve.”<br />

“It’s ok not<br />

to be ok.”<br />
