What kindness have you seen this week? Let us know here. “My Mum’s elderly neighbour fell last Thursday in the Monmouth Way area and a very kind young man (possibly called Nick) with a cockerpoo helped her and brought her home.” This post was spotted in a Facebook group and what a lovely kindness to
“I am part of a group of wonderful women who meet up once a month to share chat and general support. After our most recent lunch, I mentioned that I was heading to the station and hoping that I would be able to catch a train soon because they had all been delayed earlier in
“I was selling my table on Facebook marketplace and the sister of the person who bought it came and picked it up because she lived closer. I thought this was super kind because it meant the desk left my house sooner, and the new owner didn’t have to rush around or rearrange things to try
What small act of kindness did you see today? My husband and daughter were walking home from an errand and a neighbour happened to come by in her car – she stopped, asked if they were headed home like she was and gave them a lift. Such a great everyday example of a small, everyday

On the way home after the CharityComms Inspiring Communicators awards at the end of February, I noticed a couple of people in front of me on the escalators at Reading station. One of them was profusely thanking the other, apparently for some information she’d told her. I don’t know what it was, but it still
