Couple gives person lift to work after train is cancelled.

“Thank you to the couple who where travelling to Bridgend on the 6.22 train this morning which didn’t run. You gave my son a lift too Bridgend, which meant he wouldn’t be late for work. He was really grateful. Thank you again.” I spotted this in a local Facebook group and it made me smile […]

Community priotises safety and kindness.

“After calling out a local event for having someone who had said and done many questionable things in a safety role for newbies, the event organiser removed them from the role. Several people also messaged me privately to thank me for calling it out because it made them feel safer and like people cared. I

She smiles broadly and points to a sign which reads “helpful department here” behind her. Joshua is a man with short strawberry blonde hair and a goatee wearing a blue top and black rimmed glasses.

Team work makes the Helpful Department work!

“I’m going to be out of town next week, so first thing this morning, I sat down with Joshua Green to make sure that the people that I coach will know that they will be able to reach out to Josh while I am away…and Josh will be able to plan proactively and arrange his

Self kindness is a screen break.

Self kindness is a screen break, as Lynda told us: “I spent the majority of my week in front of the screen, so yesterday and today I hauled myself outside! I’ve realised I am at my most calm by running water, so I stood there for a quite a while.” How have you shown yourself

Di, a woman with light skin tone wearing glasses, tiling a small area above a sink. Two rows of blue tiles and one on the third row are in place with some white grout all around ready to have more tiles applied.

Friend tiles splashback

My lovely friend, Di, is way more practical than I am. We recently had the leaking sink in our downstairs cloakroom replaced and needed to retile the splashback. I knew Di had done tiling in her house in the past, so I asked if she would do it for me. Not only did she do

A Maidenhead United matchday board with game details for their match against Southend United.

Maidenhead Utd fans show kindness to confused Southend fans.

At Maidenhead Utd’s ground, all fans usually go through the same turnstiles to get in. But occasionally, usually for teams that are expected to bring bigger crowds of supporters with them, there is a separate away supporters entrance on a different side of the ground. On our way to the game against Southend, we came

Personalised sign brightens visitors day.

”I am happy to share that I welcomed a visitor with a personalized sign inside our elevator. Nice surprises like that are free and impactful.” We couldn’t agree more Clare, thank you so much for sharing! Share your own story of kindness with us just like Clare did.

Kindness doesn’t have to be glamorous but it does make a big difference! “A neighbour put a message on our WhatsApp road group asking if anyone had any spare bin bags – we have to use a particular type and she was running out. You can buy new ones from the library but she didn’t

two guinea pigs in an outside pen next to a cardboard tube. One is small with flat black and white hair, the other is a bit bigger with fluffy, wild ginger and white hair.

This prompted someone else to talk about a time when their younger sister had saved a bee from a puddle by carefully scooping it up with the spade from her sandpit. I’ve explored
