This initiative not only supports local businesses but raises a sense of unity among residents.
Throughout the campaign, First Bus will collaborate with a variety of local businesses to bring a diverse range of treats and surprises to residents. Partnerships include Mount Café for delicious lattes, Dough & Co for the city’s best cinnamon-sugar doughnut, and Books & Beans for a heartwarming scone with jam and cream.
Each business will be running this activation across a certain week, offering 50 free items a day from Wednesday through to Sunday.

Graeme Macfarlan, Commercial Director at First Bus Scotland, said: "We are thrilled to bring 'Acts of Kindness' to Aberdeen throughout the entire month of November. We understand how small acts of kindness can make a significant impact within the community, but also just make someone’s day that bit better. That’s why we’ve partnered with local businesses in Aberdeen to help spread some joy with a little gift from us while supporting the wonderful enterprises that make our city unique."
