TODAY’S the day… the seventh annual #LoveMK
Day.
Organised by the city’s official
tourism body Destination Milton Keynes, the aim of the day is not only to
promote Milton Keynes as a leisure and business destination but also to harness
the pride that many people have in their city.
This year DMK is encouraging people to
do ‘Random Acts of Kindness’ on the day. It doesn’t have to be anything huge; you
could bake a cake for work colleagues, mow your next-door neighbour’s lawn or
buy the person behind you in the Starbucks queue a coffee.
Destination MK and partners throughout
the city will be asking the MK Twitter community to use the hashtag #LoveMK on
all their tweets today to get it trending in the UK, as it has done for the
past six years.
Everyone can get involved. Download the
#LoveMK poster from the Destination MK website, or get creative with the
hashtag and photograph yourselves spreading the love.
Carys Underwood, Marketing Manager at
DMK, said “Every year the MK social media community really gets behind #LoveMK
Day and this year’s ‘Random Acts of Kindness’ theme aims to harness that
support and make it really tangible,” says DMK’s marketing manager Carys
Uunderwood.
