Today’s kind act began this morning in our pyjamas! Ezzie and I decorated some Christmas cards for the residents of the care home that is a few doors down from our house. I am really thinking of those that are living and working in care homes this Christmas- it must have been a frightening yearContinue reading “Better for Etta Kindness Campaign Day 24”

Better for Etta Kindness Campaign Day 20
Today’s kind act was a lot of fun! I helped out at the Trussell Trust’s social enterprise warehouse which meant sorting through loads of clothes donations. I was made to feel so welcome and even got a dupe of tea ☕️ Funds made through their charity shops support their aim of stopping UK hunger throughContinue reading “Better for Etta Kindness Campaign Day 20”
Better for Etta Kindness Campaign Day 16
Today’s kind act is basically a humble brag about how young I am! 💁🏼♀️Today, I signed up to be on the stem cell register through Anthony Nolan which is possible if you are aged 16-30.

Better for Etta Kindness Campaign Day 9
Today’s kind act is definitely going to become a Woolford family Christmas tradition! We got a Macdonalds drive-thru breakfast on our way to choose a Christmas tree and paid for the person’s food behind us. Sam and I felt like naughty schoolchildren when Sam asked the server if it was possible. Sam saw the womanContinue reading “Better for Etta Kindness Campaign Day 9”
Better for Etta Kindness Campaign Day 7
Today’s kind act was perfect for a chilly day like today. As a family, we got wrapped up in our woolly hats and scarves (and my favourite snuggly woolly coatigan) to take part in #winterwoollyweds for Child Bereavement UK. All you need to do is get wrapped up and donate as little or as muchContinue reading “Better for Etta Kindness Campaign Day 7”
Better for Etta Kindness Campaign Day 5
So for today’s kind act Sam was supposed to be giving blood but he’s had to start a course of antibiotics so it fell to me to offer up my veins. I wish I had a picture of me donating but alas I wasn’t in the chair for long enough so here is a pictureContinue reading “Better for Etta Kindness Campaign Day 5”

I was delighted to see some of the presents that I hadContinue reading “Better for Etta Kindness Campaign- Day 2”
An Open Letter to my Niece
Last week my beautiful niece was born. She is our eighth niece (!) but is the first on my side of the family, my brother’s first baby and of course the first baby in our family born after Etta. I can’t imagine what it’s been like for my brother and sister-in-law to have their firstContinue reading “An Open Letter to my Niece”
