World Kindness Day 2025

On 13 November 2025, individuals, workplaces, and communities across the globe will observe World Kindness Day, a celebration of compassion, empathy, and shared humanity. Kindness, often seen as a personal virtue, is also a strategic force in building trust, safety, and inclusion, especially in regulated sectors such as health and social care, education, and employment. The 2025 campaign calls on organisations to transform kindness into action: through respectful leadership, psychological safety, and values-based governance. In this blog, Anna Nova Galeon explores how small acts of kindness can drive big change, strengthening culture, boosting morale, and embedding ethical practice through ComplyPlus™, where well-being and compliance work hand in hand.

Anti-Bullying Week: Odd Socks Day 2025

From 10 to 14 November 2025, the UK will come together for Anti-Bullying Week, coordinated by the Anti-Bullying Alliance (ABA) under the theme “Power for Good.” The campaign highlights how every individual, whether a child, teacher, colleague, or leader, can use their influence to create safer, kinder, and more respectful environments. It begins with Odd Socks Day on Monday, 10 November, where wearing mismatched socks celebrates individuality and reminds us that our differences make us stronger. For regulated sectors such as education, health and social care, and workplaces, the week is a powerful reminder that safeguarding, inclusion, and well-being are not optional; they are core to compliance and culture. In this blog, Anna Nova Galeon explores how organisations can turn awareness into action by embedding anti-bullying principles into governance, workforce training, and everyday behaviour through ComplyPlus™.

Movember 2025

Throughout November 2025, millions worldwide will take part in Movember, growing moustaches and raising awareness for men’s health, from mental health and suicide prevention to prostate and testicular cancer. This year’s theme, “Changing the Face of Men’s Health” highlights the urgent need for early action, open dialogue, and systemic support. For regulated sectors such as health and social care, education, and workplaces, Movember 2025 is more than a campaign; it’s a compliance and culture opportunity. In this blog, Anna Nova Galeon explores how organisations can integrate men’s health awareness into governance, training, and well-being strategies through ComplyPlus™, ensuring that health equity and inclusion are part of everyday practice.

Trustees’ Week 2025

From 3 to 7 November 2025, the UK marks Trustees’ Week, an annual celebration of the nearly one million trustees who guide charities and community organisations with integrity and vision. The 2025 theme, “Celebrating the power of good governance” calls on trustees to strengthen governance, accountability, and collaboration in a changing regulatory landscape. For regulated sectors such as health and social care, education, and public services, the parallels are clear: effective oversight, transparent decision-making, and ethical leadership are the foundations of trust. In this blog, Anna Nova Galeon explores how Trustees’ Week 2025 challenges boards to reflect, review, and renew their governance practices - ensuring that compliance and culture evolve together.
