The Cornish Bakery’s kindness superhero.

a Cornish bakery shop with wooden exterior and “coffee and pastries” on the sign. Two people are standing at the window looking through into the shop while someone else wanders in through the door.

“It was a freezing cold day in York and I had just finished a job interview so to warm up I  went into the Cornish bakery to get a pastry and a coffee, my only card I had on me declined!!

Embarrassed I tried to cancel my order until an absolute angel stepped in and paid for my order… it completely made my day so thank you to the lovely lady with glasses in the bakery !!!! It really put a skip in my step.”

We share examples of kindness every single day, like this one sent in by Annabelle, so make sure you’re following us on InstagramFacebookLinkedInMastodon or Bsky for regular reminders that people are kind and good.
