The Kindness Challenge 2023 This October schools and nurseries up and down the country will be spreading kindness in their school communities and raising money for Childline. It’s so easy to take part. Pupils will pick up to nine kind acts using the worksheet we provide, and complete these acts on the first week of October (or another time which suits your school). Kickstart kindness in your school this October, and watch it spread throughout the year. Photography by Tom Hull. The children pictured are models.
