Come and be part of something bigger than yourself


Give A Day 2026

We are so excited for our Give a Day Week! There are many amazing projects of generosity, transformation and kindness across the city starting to pop up and there’s still more to come.

Would you love to get involved?

Check out the projects below and sign up or send your interest to the project.

Each project will take place during the week of June 29-July 5, 2026.

See you then!


Join Us!

We’ll be gathering in Carlisle town centre to lift spirits, share joy and spread kindness throughout the Carlisle community. Come and be part of something simple yet positively impactful. We’ll be giving away small gifts, uplifting quotes, phrases, greetings and of course lots of smiles to brighten people’s day.

You don’t need to bring anything at all - just a warm heart and kindness to share. If you can’t make it but would like to contribute, we’d welcome small free gifts or thoughtful items we can hand out to passersby, such as wrapped sweets, teabags or biscuits (e.g. Haribo or Penguins), uplifting messages, pictures or short poems. 

Together, let’s make Carlisle shine a little brighter and feel the love a little louder.

If you have a little time and a lot of willingness, come and join us as we bring a refresh by painting this wonderful space that opens it’s doors to so many.

All materials, paint and lunch are provided. We would love to borrow some scaffolding for the day if anyone has some available. Thankyou!
