Power of Stripes

Power of Stripes

Unleash the good.

The trusty black-and-yellow Noris pencil is there through every step of your education. From every lesson to every exam and every doodle to every scribbled note… it’s right there. In the palm of your hand. Just waiting to fulfil the day’s destiny — whatever it might be.

After all…

…the pencil is a small but powerful thing.

So, why don’t you spread some wonder with yours today?

This summer, we want YOU to take the Power of Stripes into your own hands and use the humble pencil to not only inspire educational success, but as a tool for spreading love and kindness.

But how, we hear you ask?

Well, we’re starting a Notes of Kindness revolution across the country and YOU are invited to take part — by sharing small but powerful gestures in pencil.

From messages of support to words of motivation and courage, we’re asking you to write your own message of kindness and share it with someone who might need a small pick-me-up — whether you hand the note out in person or share a photo of it on social media.

And the best part? We’ve partnered with Kidscape — the UK’s anti-bullying charity that helps — to join us on our mission of inspiring kindness this summer.

To raise money for the cause, we’re asking every person who shares a Note of Kindness to give back by donating £1.00 to Kidscape.

Plus, we’d love for you to peruse our anti-bullying learning resources available for download here — designed for use at home and in the classroom. Or you can explore Kidscape’s tips on what to do if your child is being bullied — available here.

Click here to find out more about Kidscape and to donate today.

We look forward to seeing your Notes of Kindness. And remember — you’re amazing.
