We are super excited to announce the launch of our very own song and music video, 'One Kind Word' - in aid of Anti-bullying Week 2021 and Anti-bullying Alliance
Matt Somerscale, one of our fantastic Community Support Workers by day and lead singer and ukulele player by night, has written and recorded the song which features some of the brilliant people we support.
The song is entitled ‘One Kind Word’ in support of this year’s Anti-Bullying campaign theme.
Matt and Kelvin, both employees of County Care and who also support with running Project Radio say:
“Talking to our Customers about the idea of this song and what it means to them, there was an overwhelming sense that many had experienced bullying at one time or another”
“This song has been created to celebrate the coming together of humankind in sharing ‘one kind word’ in support of those who at times, experience isolation.”
‘One Kind Word’ is now available to listen to on SoundCloud and will shortly be available to stream on iTunes, Spotify and Amazon music. The music video is now available to watch on our YouTube channel.

"Kindness is more important today than it has ever been. The isolation of the last year has underlined how little acts of consideration can break down barriers and brighten the lives of the people around us. This is one of the reasons, that ‘One Kind Word’ has been chosen as the theme of Anti-Bullying Week taking place from 15 to 19 of November 2021." - Anti-bullying Alliance
