It’s December 1st, which means it’s time to open your first window and receive your first gift of kindness … because spreading kindness and Christmas cheer really is a gift as well …

Today, give a handwritten note to a special person to tell them how much you appreciate them.

This person could be a member of your family (which of course includes all species … animals are people too!), a housemate, a friend, anybody special. A handwritten note is something to be treasured and kept and it is the perfect way to begin our countdown to Christmas.

And we would love to hear about your stories as you go about your kindness countdown to Christmas. So please share your #AllinAdvent experience with us (in all the usual places, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, email). Because even just seeing another’s act of kindness makes everyone feel better.

All in Advent! Are you in? Because we are all in! 💖
