Mothers' Day

Mothers’ Day in the UK this year is on 22nd March.

The celebration dates back to 1600s in England. “Mothering” Sunday was celebrated annually on the fourth Sunday of Lent (the 40 day period leading up to Easter) and people went to their “mother” church. Servants were allowed a day off to see their families and go to church with them. Mothers’ Day in the US is not connected to religion and instead is a day to celebrate mothers. In 2020 it was on 10th May.
