Acts of Kindness is a project that encourages everyone to spread kindness. The City has designed a community kindness card (available to download below) to distribute throughout the community and invite people to get involved in sharing the message and doing acts of kindness.
The card explains the benefits of kindness and some simple ideas of how to do an act of kindness for yourself or for someone else.
Being kind or helping someone can:
- Brighten someone’s day
- Boost your mood
- Reduce your stress levels.
The Acts of Kindness in Armadale project was originally launched on the 13th of November 2022, in line with World Kindness Day. Following the success of the project, the City once again ran the project in 2023, in line with Mental Health Week and throughout the month of October.
This year, in line with World Kindness Day (13 November), the City of Armadale is once again launching the Acts of Kindness project to encourage everyone to spread kindness. Acts of Kindness cards will be available for visitors attending City community facilities and the participating local businesses and organisations listed further below.
This year, the City will be collaborating with Crossways Community Services in their Annual Charity Christmas Appeal and including a donation box at seven of our community facilities. Help put food on the table for those in need over this festive season. Donation boxes will be available until November 28th and Crossways will be accepting donations directly up until December 13th.
