Support us There are many ways you can support us and be a part of the Small Acts of Kindness family. Whether you want to volunteer your time, make a regular donation, run the marathon in aid of Small Acts of Kindness or are a company looking to make a real impact in your local community, we would love to hear from you! Our work simply couldn’t happen without the incredible support and kindness of our volunteers, donors and partners. Get involved and you can help change the lives of thousands of people, making them feel less lonely, warmer in their homes and better connected to their community. Together we can make a difference, one small act of kindness at a time. Volunteer your time Time is precious to us all and one of the most valuable things you can donate. If you’d like to be a part of our volunteer family, who help make a meaningful and lasting difference to thousands of people’s lives, then we would love to hear from you. “As I was packing the bags I knew each bag would bring a smile to somebody's face and that makes volunteering so worthwhile” "I had a lovely morning with a group of friendly people. It is such a simple act for a couple of hours that hopefully will make a difference to many peoples lives. I would definitely love to volunteer again!" Donate Your gift means we can continue to change the lives of some of the most vulnerable older people in our community. Our work is only made possible by the generosity and kindness of our donors and partners. Each bag costs £35 and helps to heat the person, when they can't afford to heat their home. Every gift, large or small, regular or a one-off makes a difference, and we thank you for your support. To make a donation, please click on the donate link above. “I felt so thankful as there is so much in there that will help me. Especially when it comes to staying warm” Wish list To sustain and increase the reach of our organisation so that we can continue to make an impact in our community and a positive difference to the lives of older people, we rely not only on items that fill our gift bags, but a vast array of support services. Our wish list is exactly that. A list of services, products and skills from donations of blankets and mugs to logistical or marketing advice. To see how you can help please click here.
