💚 Happy Random Acts of Kindness Day! 👀 Do you know the science of kindness?

🌟 Performing just one random act of kindness reduces stress and fills you with happy hormones. Serotonin helps you relax and makes you feel good. Endorphins reduce pain, and Oxytocin reduces blood pressure. You’ll be more energised, and feel less aches and pains! Sounds great, right? 🤗

This year, you can volunteer with us and feel bloody awesome 😎
