Spent an afternoon planting a sand dune as part of a coastal revegetation project.
Day volunteering at native plant nursery – clearing work areas of debris, spot weeding and potting seedlings from trays to tubes.
Volunteered at local bake sale to raise money for Dog Refuge
As we all learnt that kindness is also about self-care and it takes courage to do so. I brought up some real practical examples for discussion at reg shaping so the team understand what it takes to be kind with courage by asking relevant tough question when it comes to conflicting priorities considering their/others wellbeing.
When I was travelling to work via train, an old man approached me asking for help as he was unsure which train to jump on to go to his location. I showed him the right platform and asked the staff there to look after him.
Organising a care package for a friend whose sister is in ICU
Sent flowers to a friend who had broken up with her long term partner.
Bought a homeless man a hot home cooked meal to the place he sleeps on the street. He is local and well know to the community.
My friend is moving up from Bunbury to Perth and needed to buy a house. She was unable to view in person so I went to multiple home opens for her and managed to secure a purchase. She settles next week.
Someone had dropped a dog poo bag near the entrance to the dog park – I picked it up and threw it away with my own dog poo bag
When I was scanning the lamingtons I wanted to buy, they came up as out of date. When I went back to the shelf to get a replacement, I picked out all the other out of date lamingtons and gave them to the staff member to get rid of so the next customer wouldn’t have the same hassle.
A teenager fell over at parkrun and skinned his knees and hands – poor thing! I stopped to make sure he was looked after
I went to donate a book to the local Noffs op shop but they aren’t taking books so I went to the nearest local library and donated there instead
The checkout operator behind me dropped a bottle of orange juice, the lid came off and it splashed all over my leg and feet. She was instantly mortified. Rather than reacting with anger I laughed and told her we’ve all done it. The operators and people at both checkouts ended up having a bit of a laugh and ended up sharing a moment.
While walking the dog to Bunnings (and collecting steps!) I saw a tennis ball on the footpath outside the tennis court – I threw it back over the fence so someone can get a spare free ball and it doesn’t become rubbish
Made a donation to MSWA as one of my friends has just been diagnosed.
Fostered a puppy overnight from refuge at short notice as they were full.
I have 2 friends that have been going through severe illness recently both physical but mostly mental. They each sat me down recently and said without my constant support and kindness they would not be here today.
Walked a neighbour’s dog because she the owner was injured.
I helped a neighbour bring her bag and box of dog food into our apartment floor
