☀️POSITIVE DISTRACTIONS THREAD☀️

We hope you're doing okay, wherever you are.

If you need some light relief though, we're going to be adding to this thread over the coming days with as many bits of good news and examples of kindness we can find.

Feel free to get involved too!
For starters, these penguins have been let out to explore the rest of their aquarium 🐧
Want more animals? @margiehousley has compiled a brilliant thread of links to loads of animal live streams you can watch!
Do you have the @Nextdoor_UK app? Your local area more than likely has a group on there you can join to keep in touch with neighbours, find help if you need it, or offer help if you're able to. They're currently running a Community Action Response campaign
Meet Bob. Bob couldn't visit his wife Nancy in her nursing home on their anniversary because of coronavirus restrictions, so instead he held up a sign outside her window that read "I've loved you 67 years and still do. Happy Anniversary."
