LATEST EVENTS
As part of the celebration, staff participated in the Kindness Box activity. Boxes were placed in staff areas to collect written affirmations reflecting kindness in action. These messages were shared at the end of shifts and in meetings, reinforcing the importance of kindness and its impact on our work. MHDA distributed Kindness Boxes across sectors to support this initiative. Gathering of Kindness Week was a meaningful opportunity to honour the voices that make our care compassionate and our workplaces humane. Kindness lives here—and it begins with each of us.
NSW Health proudly celebrated Gathering of Kindness 2025 from 10– 16 November—a week dedicated to recognising and amplifying kindness in healthcare. This statewide initiative invited staff to pause, reconnect, and reflect on the power of compassion in their daily work. The theme for this year, “One care, many voices – because kindness lives here”, reminded us that kindness is more than a value—it is a practice. It was seen in conversations, courageous leadership, the quiet strength of teamwork, and the choices made each day. Gentle words, listening ears, and simple gestures of care transformed experiences for colleagues, patients, families, and carers.
