Get involved with our community campaign and share your acts of kindness with our hashtag – #Carefor10

What is #CareFor10?

#CareFor10 is a community campaign created by Spectrum CIC, in conjunction with our 10 year anniversary celebrations. We’re encouraging everyone to care for just 10 minutes through small acts of kindness. Participation can be as simple as being neighbourly and taking out a wheelie bin, or doing a shielding loved one’s grocery shopping.

Why are we doing it?

“The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the need to stay well, both mentally and physically, and has heightened the need for people to stay connected. It’s been a difficult time for so many people, but throughout that we’ve seen impactful human acts of kindness help people through. Our campaign aims to maintain that community spirit in simple and effective ways. It will be a fantastic legacy to our 10th anniversary.” – Dr Linda Harris OBE, Spectrum’s Chief Executive.

How can you take part?

Joining in with #CareFor10 doesn’t have to involve grand gestures. Even the simplest acts of kindness can make a difference and send ripples of positivity through a community. To put this into context, in the time it takes you to cook some pasta or hang your laundry outside, you could have done a caring deed for someone and made a positive impact in their daily life.

Just remember to share your story on social media with our hashtag #CareFor10.
