Why not use these inspiring international days to create a focal point for wellbeing activities in your school, workplace or community?
1st November – World Vegan Day

World Vegan Day is celebrated as a day for exchanging ideas with like-minded people and to honour veganism. Why not take the time to educate yourself on the vegan lifestyle and its benefits for both our body and the planet with evidence based resources. You can even get involved by gathering with friends or family to cook a vegan dish or eat out and try a new recipe!

Jellyfish have been around for over 500 million years, even longer than dinosaurs! There are many speculations as to why that may be, but scientists have observed a number of potentially contributing factors such as: their need for little oxygen, their capacity to survive in any water, eat a diverse diet, reproduce and survive on little food.
Fun fact: Jellyfish have travelled to space with the help of NASA!
11th November – International Origami Day

Origami is the Japanese art of paper folding which is now often used as an umbrella term for all folding practices globally. Many objects can be used to practice this hobby such as towels and napkins, but the simplest way to try it out is with paper! Why not test your skills on International Origami Day.
13th November – World Kindness Day

“There’s no such thing as a small act of kindness. Every act creates a ripple with no logical end.” Scott Adams. Kindness can be enacted anywhere with little effort, but a great impact. In fact, acts of kindness have been shown positively impact both the person being kind and the recipient of this act. Take the time on World Kindness Day to reflect on the kindness you share in your day-to-day life.
