FANCY banishing Blue Monday with a free burger?

Gourmet Burger Kitchen in CrownGate Shopping Centre will be dishing out free lunches today to beat Blue Monday.

There are 50 free lunches up for grabs - but be quick as it is first come, first served and eat in only.

Diners need to show the GBK app on their smartphone to get hold of the free food and it is one per customer.

GBK in Worcester opens at 12pm.

What is Blue Monday?

Blue Monday usually falls on the third Monday in January and is reported to be the most depressing day of the year.

It takes into account the weather, time since Christmas and failing New Year's resolutions, debt and monthly salary.

However, don't read too much into it as it has been rubbished as 'pseudoscience' and considered nonsensical by scientists.
