That’s why we’re sharing the love this Valentine's Day by highlighting the importance of mental health, connection and community during this difficult time.

It was way back in the 15th century that the first-ever recorded Valentine was sent by a French medieval duke named Charles to his wife.

Charles penned a sweet poem to his lover while he was imprisoned in the Tower of London at just 21 years old!
