Spreading Joy: Ideas for Thinking of You Week

Have you ever felt that familiar tug of missing someone special? Maybe a friend who lives miles away, a grandparent you can’t visit often, or even a neighbour you haven’t seen in a while – there’s something truly heartwarming about letting them know you’re thinking of them.

That’s why we love Thinking of You Week. From 16th to 22nd September it’s a time to spread joy, connect with loved ones, and make a little difference.

At Kindred, we believe in the power of thoughtful gestures. A simple act of kindness can brighten someone’s day and strengthen your connection.

Here are a few ideas to inspire you:

Bake a batch of love

A homemade treat is always appreciated. Drop into your neighbours with a freshly baked treat and have a natter over a brew.

Rekindle connections

A phone call can be a powerful way to reconnect. Catch up, share stories, and recall memories with friends you haven’t seen in a while.

Laughter is the best medicine

Send a funny meme or a joke that only you and your friend will understand.

A handwritten touch

Of course, a Kindred card is a perfect way to express your feelings with a personal handwritten message.

Thinking of You Week is a reminder that even the smallest acts of kindness can have a profound impact. So, take a moment this week to reach out and let someone special know you’re thinking of them.
