The UK’s first National Thinking of You Week campaign believes that five minutes spent writing a personal greeting card equates to days of happiness for the recipient, and is urging people to kick-start the trend from September 22nd. The campaign objective is to create a wave of love and happiness across the nation by joining people together to send a card a day to different people during this week.

A a greeting card is more that just a card; it’s a personal connection between sender and receiver. In fact, research by MindLab has shown that receiving a handwritten card can have a positive emotional impact on a person. The study showed a greater positive emotional response to handwritten letters and cards when compared to electronic messages and emails. National Thinking of You week aims to highlight the emotional power of sending and receiving cards, encouraging people to reach out and show someone that they care, raise a smile or give a boost to anyone who would appreciate the thought. Cards act as a tangible messenger of caring and can lift someones mood for hours, and even days.

You could write a message just to say hello, to tell someone you love them, to make them laugh, be supportive in a time of trouble, wish them better, kiss and make up, or just to say ‘Thinking of You’.
