A small act of kindness. (any others)

[Padge]

Well done to Iceland in Wigan, Fred, who does a lot of shopping for my mother and a lot of other people unable to get out in this awful time, has been handed a hamper put together by the staff to recognise all the work he has been doing for the community.

our local community have had a volunteer group that have spent the months taking prescriptions and cooked meals to the older and more vulnerable.

In what has been a depressing year, small acts like this become worth so much more than the time taken to do it

I got a nice surprise when I went to get fuel on Christmas Eve, went into to the gas station shop to pay and was told it was being taken care of by a local church! It’s the first time I have ever been the recipient of a random act of kindness, it won’t make me more sympathetic to the church (it’s one of the odd ones), but it will get me to pay the kindness forward to someone.

Aye, Iceland!  

Iceland has scored a double at The Grocer’s 2018 Own Label Awards – taking home both top product prizes despite fierce competition.
