How Attleborough Can Celebrate Random Acts of Kindness Day

How Attleborough Can Celebrate Random Acts of Kindness Day

Random Acts of Kindness Day is this Saturday 17th February. It’s spread globally and is a great opportunity to show how small, thoughtful actions can have a significant impact worldwide and closer to home in Attleborough. Here are six easy ways to spread a little happiness and strengthen the bonds within our community.

1)     Support local businesses
Start by supporting local shops and services. Whether buying a coffee from the local café or choosing a local craftsperson for your next project, your custom helps sustain the livelihoods of those in our community.
2)     Share a compliment
Never underestimate the power of a genuine compliment. Whether praising a neighbour’s garden or acknowledging a colleague’s hard work, a kind word can go a long way in brightening someone’s day.
3)     Donate to a local charity
Consider donating to a local charity or food bank. These organisations do incredible work, and your contribution, big or small, can make a real difference to those in need.
4)     Volunteer your time
Giving your time can be incredibly rewarding. Volunteer at a local school, community centre or charity shop. Even a few hours can have a significant impact.
5)     Help a neighbour
Simple acts like helping an elderly neighbour with shopping or offering to walk someone’s dog can foster a stronger, more caring community.
6)     Pay it forward
Buy a coffee for the person in line behind you, leave a book in a public place for someone else to enjoy, or simply hold the door open for others. These small gestures of kindness can create a ripple effect of goodwill.
Let’s use Random Acts of Kindness Day as a feel-good springboard to spread smiles and kindness throughout our community, not just on 17th February, but every day.
Together, we can make Attleborough a happier, more connected place for everyone.

If you’re planning to buy a home soon, you might assume the best place to start is on the property portals, Rightmove, Zoopla, or OnTheMarket. But the truth is, the savviest buyers are seeing homes long before they ever appear online. Here’s why registering with an agent puts you one step ahead.

Many would-be buyers hesitate, waiting for calmer times before taking the plunge. Yet history shows that waiting often costs more than acting. While renters lose money monthly, owners build equity and stability. The market rewards time, not timing—progress starts the moment you buy.

With plans announced to raise the council tax surcharge on higher-value homes, this snapshot looks at how many £2m-plus properties have actually sold across the UK this year. The data shows a highly concentrated market, dominated by London, and reveals just how small this sector is nationally despite the noise around a “mansion tax.”

As the year closes and the market slows for the festive holidays, this article steps back to examine the total value of every home in Attleborough and how it has changed since 2010. Despite economic swings and uncertainty, the message is clear: Attleborough’s housing wealth has grown strongly, reshaping fortunes for homeowners and homebuyers alike.
