Milk Your Moments

The Holstein UK Group are proud to be a Platinum Contributor of the Milk Your Moments campaign alongside Arla, Dale Farm, First Milk, Glanbia, Lactalis, Graham’s and Saputo Dairy UK.

The campaign is all about the importance of taking a moment to connect or reconnect with the people in our lives and celebrate dairy’s role in those social moments. The Milk Your Moments campaign is aimed at addressing the fall in milk sales due to the coronavirus outbreak.

During July, the campaign teamed up with mental health charity MIND to highlight the importance of human connections and to encourage open conversations with others to make a positive impact on people’s mental health, especially during these difficult times. The campaign successfully raised £100,000 for MIND by donating £1.00 whenever the hashtag #MilkYourMoments was used or a visit was made to the dedicated website.
