Social Media Content Ideas for November
In England, the children have returned from their half-term break, and it’s back to the daily grind. November is a great time to add some personality to your social media content – people buy from people; it’s always good to remember that and incorporate yourself into your social media.
Have you spotted signs of winter approaching? Have you taken a picture of a recent networking event? Can you share a behind-the-scenes clip of your Christmas preparations to get involved in the run-up to the big day?
The poppies are back; Remembrance Day on the 11th falls on a Tuesday this year, following Remembrance Sunday on the 9th. You can find some beautiful posts and commentary on The Royal British Legion’s social media pages; you could also share the detail of any locally-held events to commemorate the day.
We remember the Scottish Patron Saint, St Andrew, on the 30th of November.
Health & Wellbeing Content Ideas for November
There are lots of health and well-being events, days, and campaigns this month; Lung Cancer Awareness Month and Men’s health awareness month (you will know it as Movember) run throughout November. Are you growing your beard or trying out a new moustache style? In line with Movember, the 19th is also International Men’s Day, celebrating the value men bring to the world, their families, and communities worldwide. The aim is to highlight good role models and raise the profile of men’s well-being, with one of the pillars of International Men’s Day focusing on improving gender relations and promoting gender equality for men and women.
The 5th is International Stress Awareness Day, something that is a worthwhile cause to post about – how do you, as an employer, combat stress in the workplace to keep on top of well-being and employee morale?
The 10th-14th is anti-bullying week where we see businesses as well as schools across the country come together to highlight the seriousness of bullying and the preventative measures we can put in place.
Raising awareness about diabetes is a strong goal this World Diabetes Day, celebrated on the 14th.

Food & Drink Content Ideas for November
Another event across the entire month of November is World Vegan Month.

Think of how it applies to you, whether in your personal life or business and use this as content across your social platforms.
It’s World Sandwich Day on the 3rd, a fun foodie-friendly national day to get involved with; what filling have you got today?
Let’s not forget the coffee! Are you like us and just can’t get by without your coffee fix? Great! Make sure to celebrate Cappuccino Day on the 8th! Everyone’s favourite meal…the roast dinner has its very own day; Roast Dinner Day falls on the 4th! Can you add a poll to your social media content – Do you roast or boil the veg? Mustard or horseradish? How many Yorkshire puddings is acceptable for one person? #askingforafriend
Fun Content Ideas for November
Remember, remember, the 5th of November…. If you’re attending an event, share the experience with your audience, check in, and see who else is there!

World Kindness Day falls on the 13th; show your support and help make the world a better and happier place by celebrating and promoting your good deeds and encouraging acts of kindness. What can you do as a business? Just be careful with how you approach this, try to maintain your brand authenticity, sharing stories of kindness you have encountered from others is a good approach. For all those involved with children, especially early years, World Nursery Rhyme Week runs from the 10th-14th; whether you’re a parent/carer, nursery worker, teacher, or otherwise, this week is focused on getting children interested in poetry, song, verse, and more.

Social Media Housekeeping
5 Helpful tips for your social media channels in the run-up to the festive season:
1. Freshen Up Your Profiles with Festive Branding
Update your Facebook cover photo, Instagram highlights, and profile images with a seasonal twist. A sprinkle of sparkle or a wintery colour palette keeps things on-brand but festive.
2. Check Your Opening Hours & Pin Key Info
If your hours change over Christmas & New Year update them on Google, Facebook, and Instagram. Pin a post or Story Highlight with any seasonal changes, last posting dates, or special events.
3. Audit Your Bio Links
Make sure your link-in-bio tools (like Linktree or your website navigation) direct followers to your latest offers, gift guides, or booking options. Remove old links and keep it simple.
4. Get Your Content Calendar Ready
Plan and schedule content in advance for busy days or time off. Think promotions, gift ideas, behind-the-scenes prep, and thank-you posts for your customers or team.
5. Tidy Up Your Highlights & Pinned Posts
Reorganise or refresh Instagram Highlights, ditch out-of-date promos or Stories. Pin seasonal posts on your Facebook and Instagram feeds to spotlight offers or festive news.
