nuse.

Tims has gained a five-strong listing in selected Tesco stores nationwide and is available now. The award-winning, independent British dairy brand celebrated for its authentic Greek heritage will be rolling out its deliciously creamy, gut friendly Greek Family Natural and Vanilla Kefir alongside premium Greek Family bio-live Vanilla and Raspberry yogurts. Additionally, and exclusively to Tesco, a brand-new Ginger Greek Family Yogurt completes the lineup.

Supplied in 450g recycled card pots with no plastic over-lid (the company was the first in the category to do away with these) the portfolio will launch in Tesco stores for an initial limited-time deal, ending 17^th November 2026. Both Natural and Vanilla Kefir flavours will retail for £1.85 while Tims’ 450g Greek Family Yogurt range will be available for £1.75 per pot.

The Tesco partnership follows on from listings in Waitrose, Ocado, ASDA, Sainsbury’s, Booths, along with independents and farm shops. Tims MD Tony Hinds calls this latest development with the high street giant “hugely significant” commenting:

“We’re excited to be stocked in the UK’s biggest supermarket and to bring our award-winning delicious range to Tesco shoppers. We’re also excited to introduce our new Ginger Greek Family yogurt as an exclusive to Tesco, our latest recipe made using all-natural stem ginger."

"The Tesco listing is a hugely significant moment for the Tims business, it is both testament to the dedication of our hard-working team and also represents the continuation of a journey beginning back in the 1940’s that is now step-changing into a new era of availability.”

Greek Family Kefir

Created for moments of healthier indulgence, Tims Greek Family Kefir is lactose, gluten and GM free, suitable for vegetarians, made with 12 gut-friendly live cultures and is supplied in both Natural and Vanilla, both accredited with a two-star Great Taste Award. Unlike thinner, drinkable kefir, Tims has crafted a creamy and luxurious texture by combining the probiotic properties of traditional kefir with its signature thick Greek Family yogurt.

Bio-Live Greek Family Yogurt

Luxurious, rich and creamy and made using fresh British milk sourced from the West Country and the best natural ingredients, the Tims range of Greek Family yogurt is pure, fresh and healthy while being irresistibly moreish. The Vanilla and Raspberry yogurts are both Great Taste Award winners, while the entire range is gluten and GM free, and made with 3 live cultures.

A Glasgow charity is expanding its reach to support even more people living with mental health challenges, thanks to a new initiative that’s already making a difference.

Every Friday, the sound of laughter, music, and creativity fills the halls of Common Wheel, a local charity known for its transformative work with people recovering from significant mental health trauma. The newly launched Friday Drop-In sessions offer a lifeline to those seeking connection, purpose, and healing.

For years, Common Wheel has quietly but powerfully supported over 250 individuals annually, all referred by mental health professionals including psychologists, psychiatrists, GPs, and addiction units. Through 12-week programmes in music, art, photography, gardening, climbing, and cycling, the charity has helped participants rediscover joy, build confidence, and reconnect with their communities.

Now, in response to feedback from participants, Common Wheel has gone a step further, introducing a weekly drop-in session that opens the door to even more activities, from yoga and cooking to crafts and monthly excursions.

“Hosting the drop-ins is a very new thing to Common Wheel,” said Wendy Shaw, Art & Activity Coordinator. “It's an exciting time for us with such a varied new programme of workshops including languages, printmaking, sewing, photography, jewellery making, yoga and Tai Chi to name but a few."

“We also have several excursions planned, such as a visit to the Japanese Gardens in Dollar, a variety of museum and art gallery workshops, the Botanic Gardens and National Trust tours. We are really looking forward to the months ahead - this is a very positive time for us.”

The expansion was made possible by a generous £6,900 donation from the Allied Vehicles Charitable Trust, which stepped in to cover the final portion of the £24,760 programme cost after Common Wheel raised nearly £18,000 through its own fundraising efforts.

David Facenna, Corporate Culture Director at Allied Vehicles Group, shared his thoughts in supporting the initiative:

“Common Wheel creates a safe, encouraging space for people to reconnect with themselves and others after experiencing some very difficult circumstances. They truly make a difference to people’s lives, and the Allied Vehicles Charitable Trust is proud to support their work and the positive impact it brings to the community.”
