An online networks for Fellows based in Cymru
I have run a non commercial campaign to encourage people to turn the 'dull bit in the middle' of the festive holidays into an identity of its own - Twixtmas.(Check out www.twixtmas.com)
The idea is to transfrom the period into a sort of celebration of reciprocal altruism - whereas Christmas has been overwhelmed by materialism and New Year with hedonsim - the Twixtmas period is ripe to mature into a period of 'quality time' for binge thinking and doing.(perhaps upholding the true meaning of 'epicurianism')
Challenges I have run into include:
Any thoughts on how we can spread the word, get wider engagement, and make the most of this opportunity would be welcome.
Happy Twixtmas by the way.

Thanks for the post - and love the idea of altruism over the Christmas period. I find this definitely a period of reflection and planning (for the new year) but will consider ways to help others as well.
Hope you can come to the Cardiff Network on 31 Jan and we can talk further face to face.

Yes, hope to be there - have a good Twixtmas in the meantime
