London - A university lecturer’s good-natured attempt to help neighbours during self-isolation last night became a global kindness movement.
Becky Wass, 32, designed a postcard that is easily popped through the letterbox detailing available help to the elderly.The print-at-home cards then allow the poster to say whether they can help with ‘picking up shopping’, ‘posting mail’ or ‘urgent supplies’. She posted them online under the caption #viralkindness, urging people to share the post and ‘make kindness go viral’.Mrs Wass, from Falmouth, Cornwall, said: ‘It’s wonderful to know that people want to help their neighbours out. I think everyone wants to help in times like this, the postcard idea just makes it a bit easier to do so.’
Mrs Wass said she had not yet had a request for help from neighbours, but was happy knowing that they would feel comfortable to ask for assistance if needed. Becky my wonderful wife came up with a great idea last night, and it's already going viral. Wash your hands, print this, fill it out and pop it in your neighbour's letterbox. Simples.
Thanks for sharing! You can download the printable card here -
So very beautiful...I am willing to help too!
