"It's the little things in life that mean so much"

Steve Harris

Available for over a year

A Bridport woman has told us how a random act of kindness lifted her world. 39 year old Pinque Lawes had been shielding and feeling very low after facing a number of personal health challenges in recent weeks. Yesterday Pinque went into her local supermarket for a few 'bits and bobs' - and out of the blue, she was presented with a bouquet of flowers by a cashier called Jacky, who lives with disabilities herself. BBC Radio Solent reporter Laurence Herdman has been chatting with Pinque about the unexpected gesture which is part of a kindness scheme being run by the supermarket chain, Waitrose.
