~INTERNATIONAL DAY OF FRIENDSHIP~
👫Today highlights the importance of friendship in bringing people, communities and cultures together, under this year’s theme ‘Building Trust Through Friendship, Dialogue and Peace.’
👭How can you get involved? Try taking small but meaningful actions that promote kindness, understanding and connection. This could include reaching out to an old friend, checking in on someone who may be feeling isolated, organising a community gathering or simply taking time to listen to another person’s experiences. Even a message, phone call or shared conversation can make someone feel valued and less alone.
👬Choose empathy over judgement, connection over division, and kindness wherever possible. 🩵
