The Harmony Report - Issue #11 - 29.12.25


Good morning from Fossoway Stables. As the year draws gently toward its close, this week’s stories feel especially fitting ... moments of care, collective effort, and quiet hope reminders that even in winter, meaningful work continues beneath the surface.


🌍 This Week’s Curated Highlights


1. Winter wildlife support programmes expand across the UK


Across the UK, conservation groups and local councils are expanding winter support measures for wildlife from hedgerow protection and winter seed planting to guidance on creating shelter for birds and pollinators.

Why this matters: Winter is one of the most vulnerable times for wildlife. Small acts of care now can make the difference between survival and loss ... a powerful reminder of our shared responsibility.


2. Community food projects see increased participation this winter


Food-growing initiatives, community kitchens and local food-sharing projects report increased engagement as people seek connection, resilience and warmth through shared meals and growing spaces.

Why this matters: Food has always been about more than nourishment. It brings people together, builds trust, and creates networks of care especially in quieter, colder months.


3. Global momentum continues for protecting nature into 2026


As international organisations reflect on the year just passed, there is renewed commitment to carrying forward biodiversity protection, restoration projects and nature-positive investment into the coming year.

Why this matters: Long-term change depends on continuity. Progress isn’t only about new announcements, it’s about staying with the work, year after year.


🌿 Reflection from Fossoway


This week’s stories share a common thread ... stewardship. Stewardship of wildlife through winter. Stewardship of one another through shared food and community. Stewardship of long-term commitments, even when the spotlight fades.


Here at Fossoway, winter asks us to slow, to observe, and to tend what matters most. Feeding animals, protecting young trees, planning for the year ahead ... these quieter tasks are just as vital as the visible ones.


🌱 How This Could Ripple at Fossoway


  • We might share simple ways our community can support wildlife over winter ... seed, shelter, stillness.

  • Could we invite people to reflect on one way food has connected them to others this year?

  • What if we closed the year by naming a few commitments we’ll carry gently into 2026 not as pressure, but as intention?


✨ Parting Thought


Winter reminds us that care doesn’t pause it simply changes shape. Beneath frozen ground, roots strengthen. In quieter spaces, plans take form. In communities, kindness deepens.


As we approach the year’s end, may we honour the unseen work and trust that it’s enough.

Thank you for reading. Here’s to a week of nurture, harmony and gentle, sustainable steps.


With gratitude,


The Harmony Report Team xx
