National Tea Day

National Tea Day is celebrated in the UK on 21 April each year. It’s a quintessentially British celebration of tea culture, encouraging people to come together over a cuppa. It’s simple, comforting, and a great tenant engagement opportunity.
Celebrating Britain’s favourite drink and the connections it creates.
