“My job is to work with communities to plant trees in Fife as part of climate action. I was working early in the morning to prepare for 4 local High schools to come out and plant trees in Dunnikier Park, Fife. I was digging some holes for big trees to go in along a main road.
A lovely man must have seen me working on my own and went to buy me a cup of tea and an iced bun. He came back to ‘drop it off to the lassie that was working hard on her own.’
I was so touched by this act of kindness, especially as I had missed my breakfast. A dedication to this man for his kindness and to all the hard working people out there.”
We loved hearing this story from Rebecca – it’s such a lovely example of how a small act of kindness can make an enormous difference.
