“Stories that communicate the value of kindness for building resilience in young people are more important than ever. Research shows that kindness involves not just helpful or comforting behaviour, but also a prosocial motivation – that is, an attitude of care and concern for others and a real desire to bring about positive changes in others’ lives. “
Professor of Kindness Robin Banerjee
