Volunteers Week 2026 is here!
We've been reflecting back on the wonderful guest post on the Time for Kindness blog, written by experienced volunteer Akua Opong - https://timeforkindness.co.uk/kindness-blog/what-ifwe-all-take-joy-from-being-a-volunteer/
We’re always looking for guest bloggers who want to share how kindness shows up in their world, whether that’s through volunteering, community work, creativity, leadership, or your own lived experience.
What happens when the people inside a system are kind… but the system itself isn’t built to be?
Our new blog post 'Let's make kindness visible in the system' explores this gap.
Head to our website to give it a read: https://timeforkindness.co.uk/kindness-blog/lets-make-kindness-visible-in-the-system/
Kindness shows up in so many everyday moments:
💜 a compliment
💜 a helping hand
💜 a shared treat
💜 a thoughtful gesture
💜 a moment of care.
This week’s stories remind us how powerful those small acts can be.
If you’ve noticed kindness or done something kind yourself, we’d love to hear your story and share it with our community.
Send us a DM or share it via our website.

Kindness is all around us...we just have to open our eyes to it.
These are some of our favourite kindness stories we've received this week.
Sharing your experiences makes kindness more visible.

“It’s like an ice‑breaker, without being one of those awful ice‑breakers that make everyone cringe!”
That’s how one participant described Sarah’s Kindness Stories activity - a simple, uplifting way to get people talking, connecting and feeling good at the start of an event.
If you’re planning a conference, meeting or away day and want something different to set the tone, get in touch to book Sarah as your opening speaker.

In a world that often feels heavy, small acts of kindness can shift the whole day, for us and for others.
We love receiving your kindness stories. Please do continue to share them with us.
Either drop your stories in a DM or contact us via our website.
We’re proud to be part of Together We Can – #KindnessCounts, a global initiative running 20–24 April to shine a light on the good that’s already happening around us.
When you see kind, you feel better. And when you feel better, you perform better. That’s why making kindness visible matters.
I hope you’ll take part in whatever way feels right for you.
If you’ve ever heard our founder, Sarah, speak about kindness, you’ll know how powerfully she brings the topic to life.
Sarah's talks are centred on one message: noticing kindness more often and how noticing kindness can transform individuals, workplaces and whole communities.
If you’d like Sarah to speak at your event or join you as a guest on your podcast, get in touch 💜
What does kindness look like in sport?
Guest writer Eden Byrne explores this beautifully in How to build a culture of kindness in sport, which you'll find over on our blog.
We’re always looking for new writers who have a kindness story to share, especially from underrepresented groups whose voices deserve to be heard.
If you’d like to write for Time for Kindness, we’d love to hear from you.

Everyday kindness is everywhere.
It's in a helping hand at the station, a lift in the rain, a gentle stretch for a friend in pain, a simple moment of support between strangers.
Share your stories of kindness on our website, or drop us a DM.
