Random Acts of Kindness Day 2026 💜

Today is all about celebrating and encouraging random acts of kindness.

Kindness helps others and is also good for your own mental health. Even a small act of kindness can brighten someone’s day and make you feel better too.

Anyone can join in! Here are some ideas for random acts of kindness you can try today:

⭐Send a positive text: A quick "Thinking of you!" or "You're doing great!"
⭐Compliment the first three people you speak to today.
⭐Call a friend/relative: Have a real chat with someone lonely or who you haven't spoken to in a while.
⭐Pay for someone's lunch or coffee in line.
⭐Create and send a care package to someone in need.
⭐Donate to a charity, pick up litter, or contribute to a local food bank.

Even the smallest act of kindness can make a big difference in someone’s life.

As people age, they can experience deterioration in their health, including hearing loss. 👂

It is estimated that there are 11 million people with hearing loss across the UK, with such a large number of people having hearing loss, it is essential to understand how to communicate with them effectively.

Here are some tips for living with someone who has hearing loss:
-Be patient: People with hearing loss may become frustrated when communication breaks down.
-Reduce background noise: ensure you are communicating in a quiet environment.
-Face the person: Make sure the person can see your face while you talk.
-Speak clearly: Use your regular tone of voice and don't shout.
-Use visual cues: Use hand gestures and lip movements.
-Check for understanding: Confirm with the person that they have understood.
-Rephrase: If the person doesn't understand, try saying it differently.
-Take breaks: People with hearing loss may get tired quickly trying to understand.
-Encourage hearing tests: Untreated hearing loss can lead to social anxiety, depression, and other negative effects.

If you are worried about someone's hearing loss, speak to your GP.

Mary and Ellie are taking on a trek for Alzheimer's Society and would love your support.

On 11 July 2026, Mary and Ellie will walk 13 miles through the Cotswolds to raise money for the Alzheimer's Society.

At Papillon Home Care, Mary and Ellie have seen firsthand how dementia affects people and their families. They have supported many through tough times and know how important the right help can be. Their experiences have shown them that charities like the Alzheimer's Society need more research and resources to keep making a difference.

The Alzheimer’s Society aims to build a future where dementia does not take away quality of life. They help people living with dementia today and work for a better tomorrow by pushing for change and funding vital research.

Every donation, big or small, is truly appreciated and will support this important cause, donate here

Thank you for supporting Mary and Ellie on their trek for the Alzheimer's Society. Together, we can bring hope and support to everyone affected by dementia.
