Mother’s Day (UK)

Mother’s Day in the UK, also known as Mothering Sunday, is celebrated on the fourth Sunday of Lent, typically in March. Originating as a Christian tradition, it was a day for people to return to their “mother church” for worship. Over time, it evolved into a day to honor mothers and maternal figures, with families showing appreciation through cards, flowers, gifts, and acts of love. While its date differs from the international Mother’s Day in May, the sentiment of celebrating motherhood remains the same.
