Cake4Kindness Day 2024
21st November 2024, marked Cake4Kindness 2nd birthday and to celebrate we invited communities to join us for Cake4Kindness Day, the first of our annual initiative.
A day to bake and connect with others to alleviate loneliness and social isolation. And through kindness share those bakes with their local homeless charities (or a charity of their choice) and build local relationships and help create a more inclusive, kinder and supportive community.
​
Below are a few of the many communities that participated in the initiative last year and have pledged to celebrate the day again in 2025. Take a read below and see how they celebrated Cake4Kindness Day 2024.
