Ever heard of Twixtmas? Apparently, 'Twixtmas' is the five days between Christmas and the New Year holiday and PR consultant Andy Green wants to use it as a period where everyone would ideally do five small things to make our world a better place.

The Twixtmas campaign has been developed by the Flexible Thinking Forum, a not-for-profit organisation promoting flexible and creative thinking skills in business and the community, encouraging people to challenge set ways of thinking.

Andy, who is a member of the Forum, says it's not money making in any way, it's being done because it seems a good thing to do.

Although we live in a 'time-poor' age, during Twixtmas many people will be bored, fed up with sitting in front of the telly or shopping so five small things shouldn't be too strenuous should it?

But what sort of thing is being suggested? Each of the five days of Twixtmas is themed to offer a way of making the most of each day where people are invited to celebrate themselves, do something unselfish by celebrating others, and do something for a friend, for the planet, or for their future.

Check out www.twixtmas.com for ideas or partner organisation www.helpfromhome.org which shows you how to carry out home based micro volunteer activities and "change the world in just your pyjamas"!

Is it too late to do anything? It's never too late and as anthropologist Margaret Mead said: "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has."

Happy Twixtmas to you.
