Storytime. I turn on the TV news at night and see stories about people misbehaving in relation to corona. While I get it that those stories are news, there are many other uplifting corona stories. Like the school teacher we heard of the other day who is now working 20 hours a week extra, unpaid, because of home schooling, and that they are paying their own internet access for video teaching of their kids.

I heard the story about a local mechanic who helped a young kid get their car back on the road for free so they did not have to travel on public transport.

Then, there was the story about the family that was cooking evening meals for the family of a single mum, their neighbour, who is a nurse and on the front line.

Our community is full of wonderful stories of community. These stories warm our hearts.

Many local newsXpress stores are making it easier for you to say thank you to nurses, doctors, teachers, first responder, cleaners, farmers, local council workers, retail staff and others keeping people and communities safe and running.

When you buy a Mother’s Day card or 2 or more or any other cards from a local newsXpress store, you can choose a free Thank You card from a selection we will have for you to choose from.

A thank you card left at a school, hospital, doctor’s surgery, police station, nursing home or even on top of your garbage bin could offer the appreciation and encouragement to make the day of those spending their days helping you every day.

newsXpress and its community of local family retailers is grateful to be able to help you say thank you.

The free Thank You cards will be at the counter, for selection when making your purchase.
