SUMMARY:International Widows Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:International Widows Day is a global awareness day that takes place annually on 23rd June. The day was launched by the United Nations in 2010 to raise awareness of the violation of human rights that widows suffer in many countries following the death of their spouses.\nIn many countries with traditional societies\, women find themselves left in poverty when their husband dies. In some countries\, these women find themselves denied of inheritance and land rights\, evicted from their homes\, ostracised and abused. The children of widows also often find themselves affected\, withdrawn from school and more vulnerable to abuse\, especially in the case of girls. \nInternational Widows Day works to encourage action in achieving full rights for widows\, highlighting the need for more research and statistics into violence\, discrimination and poverty suffered by widows and develop policies and programmes to address the problem.\nThe ultimate goal of the day is to develop resources and policy to empower widows and allow them to have access to education\, work\, healthcare and lives free of violence and abuse. Enabling them to create a life for themselves and their children following the death of their husband and ending a cycle of poverty and abuse. \nFurther details about International Widows Day can be found at www.un.org

Today you can end your day with peaches and cream. \nSome interesting trivia for you on this day! Did you known\, that China is the biggest producer of peaches?

Put grilled peaches in plates grilled side up\, add a spoon of cream and chopped hazelnuts. Garnish the dessert with fresh basil leaves. \nThis is a perfect treat to celebrate the holiday.

SUMMARY:Global Car Recycling Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:What is Global Car Recycling Day?\n\nGlobal Car Recycling Day is an annual event established to raise awareness of the importance of responsible car recycling – protecting our environment and supporting sustainable car production.\n\nIt’s clear that while most countries’ populations love their cars\, at the end of the cars’ lives they are not always shown the same love and neither is the environment! While domestic recycling is second nature in most economically developed nations\, cars are a complicated and potentially environmentally dangerous item – even more so with the advent of electric vehicles – that many people are still unaware can be effectively recycled.\n\nWith over 1.4 billion cars on roads globally\, it’s vital the public makes\, and has the option to make\, a responsible choice when their vehicle gets to the end of its life.\n\nGlobal Car Recycling Day is driven by international car recycling expert CarTakeBack. Operating with government agencies\, numerous leading vehicle manufacturers\, hundreds of recyclers\, world-leading recycling experts and most importantly serving climate-conscious customers\, CarTakeBack felt it was vital to draw more attention to this unique recycling issue across the world… Hence the birth of Global Car Recycling Day!\n\nWhen is Global Car Recycling Day 2024?\n\n20th June is a day to raise awareness with the public about responsible car recycling\, also to highlight the need for governments across the world to tighten car recycling regulations and support related industries. The public can drive that progress by demanding an environmentally responsible route for the disposal of their old car.\n\nThis awareness day can also celebrate the vehicle dismantlers and recyclers that are delivering initiatives to support vehicle manufacturers. Circular economies – key to sustainable car production – can only be achieved when the disposal of cars is considered from conception and effective car recycling is achieved.\n\nGlobal Car Recycling Day needs to generate conversations in homes\, businesses and governments about how important car recycling is if we are to maintain the world’s most popular form of travel and protect our environment.\n\nYou can get involved in the chat on Twitter using the hashtag #GlobalCarRecyclingDay.

SUMMARY:World Refugee Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:World Refugee Day is held on June 20th. This is an annual event\, held on the same date each year.\nWorld Refugee Day honours the strength and courage of refugees and encourages public awareness and support of the refugees\, people who have had to flee their home lands because of conflict or natural disaster. \nRefugees are vulnerable and in need\, and are often misunderstood and maligned\, and often have very little or nothing of their posessions and little food\, they often have to leave their homes with nothing or with what they can carry. They suffer cold\, hunger\, trauma\, despair\, disease\, violence and loss. The awareness day is to help public understanding of refugees as well as raising support and help. \nAcross the world\, agencies\, both governmental and non-governmental\, work tirelessly to help refugees\, but with people being made refugees daily\, more help and awareness is constantly needed\, to ensure that refugees are treated fairly and provided for\, rather than being neglected or shunned\, and there are projects to re-settle and provide for refugees. So World Refugee Day highlights all of this. And now it also marks the launch of the ‘With Refugees’ petition\, which will state the needs and potential rights of refugees.

This significant day aims to inspire individuals\, communities\, and organizations to take action towards reducing air pollution and improving air quality. By coming together to address this global issue\, we can create a healthier and more sustainable future. In this article\, we explore the essence of National Clean Air Day 2024\, its history\, and how you can actively participate in this crucial initiative. \nWhat is National Clean Air Day 2024?\nNational Clean Air Day is a day dedicated to highlighting the impact of air pollution on our health and the environment.

The inaugural event took place in 2017\, and since then\, it has grown into a nationally recognized campaign. The day serves as a platform to highlight the impacts of air pollution\, raise awareness\, and drive action towards cleaner air and a healthier environment. \nNational Clean Air Day has gained significance worldwide as concerns about air pollution and its detrimental effects on human health and the planet continue to escalate. It serves as a reminder that we all have a role to play in reducing air pollution and protecting the quality of the air we breathe. \nNational Clean Air Day 2024 presents an opportunity for individuals\, communities \,and organisations to unite in the common goal of improving air quality and protecting our health and the environment. By actively participating in this important initiative\, we can contribute to a cleaner\, healthier future for ourselves and future generations. \nLet us embrace National Clean Air Day 2024 as a call to action. Together\, we can reduce air pollution\, advocate for sustainable practices\, and raise awareness about the importance of clean air. By making small changes in our daily lives and supporting larger-scale efforts\, we can create a significant impact and pave the way for a cleaner and brighter future. \nRemember\, every action counts. Join the movement\, inspire others\, and let us breathe clean air for the well-being of all.

SUMMARY:Brake's Kids Walk 2024
DESCRIPTION:It is every child’s right to be able to walk in their community without fear of traffic and pollution. Danger from traffic is a big factor in whether families are able to walk safely in the places where they live. It affects their ability to be healthy and socially active.\nChildren of all ages are at risk of being hurt or killed when walking near roads. On average\, six children are killed or seriously injured on roads in Britain every day – that’s equivalent to a whole class of children every single week. \nBrake’s Kids Walk is a great way to inspire and engage children about the dangers they face and raise awareness among parents and the wider community about the need to protect children on roads. \nIt’s also a great opportunity to fundraise for Brake and support families who have lost loved ones in road crashes.

SUMMARY:International Picnic Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:International Picnic Day is coming up!\nJune 18th every year is International Picnic Day. The origins of this event are unknown\, but it doesn’t dampen its popularity with many countries across the globe celebrating this event.

SUMMARY:Autistic Pride Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:Every year\, organisations from across the globe celebrate Autistic Pride Day on June 18 with a variety of events. The aim of this day is to raise awareness amongst those who are not on the autistic spectrum disorder so they do not see autistic people as requiring treatment\, but as unique individuals. \nThis annual event was first celebrated by Aspies for Freedom in 2005 and they modelled Autistic Pride Day on the gay pride movement. One of the most significant aspects of the day is that it is not run by charities; it is run by autistic people themselves. Since its beginnings\, Autistic Pride Day has been a community event and not a day for other organisations to promote themselves by stifling autistic people. It is now a global celebration that takes place predominantly online. \nAutistic Pride Day is represented by the rainbow infinity symbol. This symbol is intended to represent the diversity of autistic people and the infinite possibilities and variations within the autistic community. \nAccording to representatives of Autistic Pride Day\, people with autism have unique characteristics that provide them with both rewards and challenges. Although many of the difficulties they face are because of their neurodiversity\, another factor is issues in society. For example\, society’s attitude towards autism is often one of pity or a belief that it is a condition requiring treatment. \nActivists want to shift attitudes away from this and towards acceptance and the realisation that autism is a difference rather than a disability.

SUMMARY:Cervical Screening Awareness Week 2024
DESCRIPTION:Cervical Screening Awareness Week is an annual event which will run from  the 19th to the 24th of June 2024. The week aims to highlight the importance of regular cervical screening for women’s health.\nCervical cancer is the most common form of cancer in women under 35 with two women in the UK per day dying from the disease. Regular cervical screening appointments can prevent up to 75% of instances of cervical cancer\, saving 5000 lives per year.

SUMMARY:Refugee Week 2024
DESCRIPTION:Refugee Week takes place every year across the world in the week around World Refugee Day on the 20 June. In the UK\, Refugee Week is a nationwide programme of arts\, cultural and educational events that celebrate the contribution of refugees to the UK\, and encourages a better understanding between communities.\nRefugee Week started in 1998 as a direct reaction to hostility in the media and society in general towards refugees and asylum seekers. An established part of the UK’s cultural calendar\, Refugee Week is now one of the leading national initiatives working to counter this negative climate\, defending the importance of sanctuary and the benefits it can bring to both refugees and host communities. \nThe aims of Refugee Week are: \nTo encourage a diverse range of events to be held throughout the UK\, which facilitate positive encounters between refugees and the general public in order to encourage greater understanding and overcome hostility\nTo showcase the talent and expertise that refugees bring with them to the UK\nTo explore new and creative ways of addressing the relevant issues and reach beyond the refugee sector\nTo provide information which educates and raises awareness of the reality of refugee experiences \nOur ultimate aim is to create better understanding between different communities and to encourage successful integration\, enabling refugees to live in safety and continue making a valuable contribution. \nRefugee Week is an umbrella festival\, with events held by a wide range of arts\, voluntary\, faith and refugee community organisations\, schools\, student groups and more. Past events have included arts festivals\, exhibitions\, film screenings\, theatre and dance performances\, concerts\, football tournaments and public talks\, as well as creative and educational activities in schools. \nThrough Refugee Week we aim to provide an important opportunity for asylum seekers and refugees to be seen\, listened to and valued. \nJoin us in celebrating Refugee Week!

SUMMARY:World Day to Combat Desertification and Drought 2024
DESCRIPTION:Since 1994\, June 17th has been the World Day to Combat Desertification and Drought to draw public attention to the UN Convention to Combat Desertification and it has been celebrated ever since.\nDesertification is an increasing ecological problem. It occurs when previously fertile land becomes desert through deforestation\, drought or improper agriculture. The Convention specifically covers the areas of the planet which are the most at risk of desertification. These areas are often home to some of the most vulnerable people and eco-systems. Each June 17th\, the World Day to Combat Desertification is promoted worldwide to raise public awareness of\, and support for\, international efforts in combating desertification and the effects of drought. \nThe 196 parties to the convention try to improve living conditions for people in these areas by restoring and maintaining the soil fertility and by mitigating the effects of drought. The parties encourage participation by local people on schemes to fight desertification and land degradation such as tree planting. They firmly believe that land degradation neutrality is possible though strong community involvement and cooperation at all levels. \nThe UNCCD Secretariat\, the country parties to the convention and its stakeholders try to educate the public about effective methods to work the land without causing degradation. The invested organisations celebrate the day by organising outreach programmes and by holding awareness raising events.

SUMMARY:World Elder Abuse Awareness Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:World Elder Abuse Awareness Day is held on June 15th and is an annual international UN observance day on the same date each year. The day came about as a result of UN resolution 66/127. \nWith a growing global population of elderly people\, and as longevity increases\, abuse of the elderly is an increasing and serious problem that affects health and human rights and can cause death\, so it is vital to raise awareness of it and thus prevent it whenever and wherever possible. \nElder abuse is global and comes in many forms including physical\, emotional\, sexual and financial abuse and also neglect. Elderly people are human and deserve the same dignity and respect as people of all other age groups. \nElderly people are particularly vulnerable to abuse and to being unable to defend themselves and get help as fear and infirmity can be major barriers to seeking and getting help\, and sometimes spotting and challenging abuse in the elderly isn’t easy\, some are isolated having outlived family and friends\, and some are abused in institutions where abuse is not spotted or is covered up\, and in some cases the elderly are not given priority by authorities in abuse matters. \nThe UN aims to raise awareness of elder abuse and prevent it\, and on World Elder Abuse Awareness Day\, communities and the press and media can run events and highlight the danger of elder abuse and what can be done to prevent it and what to do if it is spotted.

SUMMARY:World Blood Donor Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:World Blood Donor Day is an annual event\, usually on the same date each year\, to thank voluntary blood donors and acknowledge them and encourage blood donation and new donors\, especially by representing how blood donations have saved and changed lives. The Day has the slogan ‘Share Life\, Give Blood’\, referring to the caring and cohesion that giving blood and caring for others involves.\nOne of the aims of the day is to encourage younger people\, who might be a bit nervous or unsure about giving blood\, to feel encouraged to sign up and start donating\, so that the donor population doesn’t decline but stays strong. It is also to highlight the need to for donations to be regular in order to keep stocks and quality of blood donations high. \nBlood donation saves millions of lives annually and helps with the recovery and health of patients who have illnesses or injuries\, complex operations or childbirth problems. Blood stocks are also essential in natural and man-made disasters. Some blood types are rare\, so promoting the need for rare donor types is also part of this event. World Blood Donor Day is vital in highlighting the need for blood donors and regular donations. \nMany countries still have a shortage of donors\, and thus World Blood Donor Day is vital to these countries to raise awareness of blood donation and thus increase supply in order to save as many lives as possible.

SUMMARY:Sewing Machine Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:A Day That Celebrates the Invention of the Sewing MachineHow many of you have heard of National Sewing Machine Day? We’d put money on there only being a few. Who is responsible for creating this unusual day? We really couldn’t find a culprit. What is its purpose? To celebrate the invention of the sewing machine of course. It is observed every year on June 13.\nWho Invented the Sewing Machine?\nThis is a much easier question to answer. It was English inventor Thomas Saint who applied for the first sewing machine patent\, in 1790. The design for Thomas’s sewing machine was never taken any further\, and there is no evidence that his machine for stitching leather and canvas was ever made. \nA working model of a sewing machine wasn’t made until 1874. A guy named William Newton Wilson found the drawings made by Saint in the Patent Office in London. He made some adjustments to the design and went on to build a working model. This model is now on display in the London Science Museum. \nSewing machines have been used in industrial settings for many years\, and it wasn’t all that long ago you would have found one in many people’s homes. They went out of fashion for several years\, with the influx of cheap manufactured clothes and furnishings. But are currently enjoying a bit of a revival. \nIf you want to celebrate National Sewing Machine Day\, the best way to do it is to get stitching and make something for yourself or your family.

SUMMARY:Carers Week 2024
DESCRIPTION:About Carers Week\nCarers Week is an annual campaign to raise awareness of caring\, highlight the challenges unpaid carers face and recognise the contribution they make to families and communities throughout the UK. It also helps people who don’t think of themselves as having caring responsibilities to identify as carers and access much-needed support. \nThe campaign is brought to life by thousands of individuals and organisations who come together to provide support for carers\, run activities and highlight the vital role carers play in our communities\, drawing attention to just how important caring is. \nCarers need to be recognised for the difficulties they are experiencing\, respected for all they are doing\, provided with information\, and given the support they need to care safely. \nA carer is anyone who looks after a family member or friend who has a disability\, mental or physical illness\, addiction\, or who needs extra help as they grow older. Caring’s impact on all aspects of life from relationships and health to finances and work can be significant. Whilst many feel that caring is one of the most important things they do\, its challenges should not be underestimated. Caring without the right information and support can be tough. It is vitally important that we recognise the contribution carers make to their families and local communities\, workplaces and society\, and that they get the support they need. \nFind out how you can get involved in this year’s Carer’s Week here\, and show your support by saying “I Care” on social media.

Some popular types include Cheddar\, Swiss\, Brie\, and Mozzarella.\nCheese is made from the milk of various animals\, including cows\, goats\, sheep\, and buffalo. The type of milk used affects the taste and texture of the cheese.\nThe process of making cheese involves curdling milk using either rennet or an acid\, separating the curds from the whey\, and then aging or ripening the curds to develop flavor.\nThe aging process greatly influences the taste and texture of cheese. Younger cheeses tend to be mild and creamy\, while aged cheeses are sharper and more complex in flavor.\nCheese is a rich source of protein\, calcium\, phosphorus\, and other essential nutrients. It also contains vitamins such as vitamin A and vitamin B12.\nBlue cheeses\, such as Roquefort and Gorgonzola\, are characterized by the presence of mold\, which gives them their distinctive blue or green veins.\nThe largest wheel of cheese ever made weighed over 34\,000 pounds (15\,400 kg). It was a cheddar cheese made in 1989 in Wisconsin\, USA.\nCheese is a versatile ingredient and can be enjoyed in various ways\, such as on its own\, melted on sandwiches or pizzas\, grated over pasta\, or used in cooking and baking.\nCheese has been a significant part of many cultures and cuisines around the world. Countries like France\, Italy\, the Netherlands\, and Switzerland are renowned for their cheese production and have unique cheese traditions.\n\nThe best ways to enjoy cheese\n\nCheese Platter: Creating a cheese platter is a fantastic way to enjoy different types of cheese. Select a variety of cheeses with different flavors\, textures\, and strengths. Include options like a creamy Brie\, a tangy blue cheese\, a sharp Cheddar\, a nutty Gouda\, and a delicate goat cheese. Pair the cheeses with accompaniments like fresh fruits\, nuts\, honey\, olives\, and crusty bread. This allows you to savor the distinct characteristics of each cheese while enjoying complementary flavors.\nGrilled Cheese Sandwich: A classic grilled cheese sandwich is a comforting and delicious way to enjoy cheese. Use a good-quality bread\, such as sourdough or ciabatta\, and layer it with your favorite cheese\, like Cheddar\, Gruyere\, or Swiss. Add some additional ingredients like sliced tomatoes\, caramelized onions\, or crispy bacon for extra flavor. Grill the sandwich until the cheese is melted and gooey\, creating a warm and satisfying treat.\nCheese Fondue: Fondue is a fun and interactive way to enjoy cheese with family and friends. Prepare a cheese fondue by melting a blend of cheeses like Gruyere and Emmental with white wine\, garlic\, and a touch of nutmeg. Serve it with bite-sized pieces of bread\, vegetables\, and even meats for dipping. The communal nature of fondue makes it a social and enjoyable experience.\nCheese and Wine Pairing: Pairing cheese with the right wine can enhance the flavors of both. Experiment with different combinations\, such as pairing a creamy Camembert with a crisp and acidic Sauvignon Blanc\, or a robust aged Cheddar with a bold red wine like Cabernet Sauvignon. Consider the characteristics of the cheese\, such as its texture\, intensity\, and flavor\, and look for wines that complement or contrast with those qualities.\nCheese in Pasta Dishes: Cheese plays a crucial role in enhancing the flavors of pasta dishes. Whether it’s a classic spaghetti carbonara\, a creamy fettuccine Alfredo\, or a rich lasagna\, cheese can add a delightful richness and creaminess to the dish. Experiment with different cheeses like Parmesan\, Pecorino Romano\, or Mozzarella\, depending on the recipe. Grate or melt the cheese over the pasta to enjoy its savory goodness in every bite.\n\nRemember\, these are just a few ways to enjoy cheese\, and the possibilities are endless.

SUMMARY:World Milk Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:Raise a glass to celebrate World Milk Day 2024\nWe say Cheers’\, Mma manu’\, Yam sing‚to the parents who make sure there’s always a carton in the fridge\, to the hard working dairy farmers\, to the organisations who provide dairy supplements to help tackle famine and malnutrition\, to the huge network of people who help us to enjoy milk. \nAs we Raise a Glass to milk\, we connect with others and invite them to join the celebration that the goodness represents. It allows us to share the stories about all the goodness of milk and all the people who produce it. It offers a simple\, natural way to recognize the people who matter most to us ‚ in our communities\, schools and homes. \nBack in 2001\, somebody decided that the world should take a day to celebrate anything and everything related to milk. They requested that the FAO (the Food and Agriculture Organisations of the United Nations) should put forward a specific day for these festivities they selected June 1st\, and the rest his history! \nThe tradition of celebrating World Milk Day on June 1st came from the fact that many countries were already celebrating World Milk Day on or around this date. A date in late May was originally proposed\, but some countries felt that they already had too many holidays around this time. As a result\, June 1st became the special day dedicated to milk. \nWorld Milk Day puts a lot of attention on milk and does a great job in publicising activities connected with the milk industry. The fact that many countries around the globe all choose this specific day for World Milk Day shows that milk is a food that is cherished worldwide.

SUMMARY:World No Tobacco Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:The World Health Organisation’s World No Tobacco Day is every year on 31st May. It was created to bring awareness to more people about the dangers and health risks of smoking tobacco\, and ultimately\, to stop use of tobacco around the world.\nThe vast majority of the population of the developed countries is aware of the dangers of tobacco and smoking. Over 7 million people are killed across the globe by smoking Tobacco alone. Many of us know it is believed to be the leading cause of throat and lung cancers\, and a major risk factor in many other types of cancer. However\, what is little known is that smoking tobacco is one of the main cause of heart problems and diseases. The aim of World No Tobacco Day is to highlight this issue. \nTobacco use and second-hand smoke are known to contribute to around 12% of all deaths from heart disease and is the second leading cause of Cardio Vascular Disease\, second only to high blood pressure (which smoking can also contribute to). While these numbers are bad for smokers\, it’s important to remember that nearly 900\,000 people are killed by breathing in second-hand smoke. The World No Tobacco Day also wants to highlight this issue that smokers don’t just affect their health\, but that of the people and loved ones around them. \nFinally\, the WHO wants to bring awareness to the fact that of the over 1 billion people worldwide that smoke\, nearly 80% of those are in low-income countries where tobacco-related disease and death will have the hardest impact.

SUMMARY:National Mint Julep Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:May 30 is National Mint Julep Day. This drink was introduced at the Kentucky Derby in the 1930s and since then it has become the event’s official drink. Mint julep is the best refreshing summer drink\, made of water\, sugar\, Bourbon and spearmint. It’s similar to Mojito\, but rum was replaced by Bourbon.\nBartenders have their own trick to enhance the flavour- bruise the mint leaves a little before you add other ingredients\, then you’ll have a flavorful drink. \nThe drink can be made easily at home\, and can even be adapted so that it doesn’t contain alcohol.

SUMMARY:International Day of United Nations Peacekeepers 2024
DESCRIPTION:Every May 29th\, the world celebrates the International Day of United Nations Peacekeepers.\nThe United Nations Peacekeepers are a force made up of over 113\,000 people\, (though more than a million have served since it first started 70 years ago) both police forces and civilians. Created from 125 countries\, and serving in 14 missions all over the world currently. They are used to protect and care for civilians\, disarm ex-combatants\, ensure ceasefires are kept\, protect human rights\, the rules of law and supporting free and fair democracy. They also work tirelessly to make sure women’s voices are heard and growing in civilian\, military and political life. \nThe International Day of United Nations Peacekeepers was created to celebrate the people who serve with the force and veterans of the service\, pay tribute to those who have lost their lives trying to make the world a better place through the force and help bring awareness of this force for good in the world. While many are aware of the Peacekeepers\, very few are aware of what missions it carries out constantly. The budget for the force is also only less than 0.5% of the money spent in military worldwide. \nThis year alone\, they are present in Cote d’Ivoire\, Haiti\, Liberia\, Southern Sudan\, Mali and continue to work across the globe on removing landmines and explosives abandoned after wars. These explosives continue to be a problem for many people trying to put their lives back together after war and expand farmland\, create new communities and just explore.

SUMMARY:National Biscuit Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:Hoorah! The 29th May each year is National Biscuit Day\, so if you’re nuts about Ginger Nuts or more of a Custard Cream kind of a person – (personally I don’t think there’s any excuse in the world for a Custard Cream being top of your dunking list\, but each to their own.) I’m pretty sure we can all agree that May 29th is up there with one of the best awareness days. \nSo normally we might put a little bit about the nations favourite biscuit\, the history of the biscuit\, a few biscuit facts etc but i’m not going to kid myself that you’re even still sat reading this.

SUMMARY:Oak Apple Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:As perhaps the most British day in the calendar\, Oak Apple Day has absolutely nothing to do with celebrating apples themselves and everything to do with the restoration of the monarchy\, following the rule of Oliver Cromwell and his anti-royal cohorts. Cromwell was a man so miserable that he banned Christmas\, and it was for this (but probably more the execution of Charles I) that he was dug up two years after he died and posthumously executed. What a time to be alive. \nOther names for Oak Apple Day include Restoration Day\, Royal Oak Day\, Shick Shack Day\, Packie Bonner Day\, Oak and Nettle Day\, and Yak Bob Day. Apart from Packie Bonner Day we made that one up using the name of the former Celtic and Ireland goalkeeper. But you’d believe it if we left it in\, wouldn’t you?

Leaders of this organisation include business executives\, heads of state and experts in women’s rights and social justice. It was founded in 1977 and is a worldwide\, non-profit group of like-minded people. \nWhat You Can do to Show Your Support \nOne of the most obvious ways is to make a donation to the The Hunger Project Trust. Money raised will go to help both men and women in developing countries become agents of their own development. There is a Social Media Toolkit that can be used for sharing posts on Facebook\, Twitter and Instagram. You can tell your friends about World Hunger Day and ask for their support. \nAre You Brave Enough to Try a Week Without Sugar? \nAnyone interested in showing their support is being encouraged to give up sugar for one week. That means no added\, processed sugar or artificial sweeteners.

SUMMARY:National Epilepsy Week 2024
DESCRIPTION:From May 24 to May 30\, National Epilepsy Week will be taking place to raise awareness for those affected by epilepsy\, what epilepsy is\, who’s affected and what can be done to help those who suffer from this condition.\nWhat is epilepsy? \nEpilepsy is a neurological condition that affects the brain and causes recurring seizures or fits in people. Due to an uncontrolled increase of excess electrical activity in the brain interfering with the normal functions\, this causes a short interruption to the relay of messages in the brain. \nWho’s affected? \nApproximately 500\,000 people in the England are diagnosed with epilepsy\, affecting people of all ages\, from newborns to the elderly. \nWhat can be done to help? \nLearning to recognise the symptoms of a seizure is a great place to start helping those affected\, as well as knowing what to do when a seizure occurs to minimise the harm done to both the person and those around them. You can also look into lobbying for more support for those affected by epilepsy\, so they can get the treatment and care they deserve. \nAll in all\, epilepsy is a condition affecting more people than you might think\, and by knowing the early warning signs and what to do when a seizure occurs can make a big difference helping those affected by the chronic condition.

Wine consumption is forbidden in Islam. \nDid you know that the Germans discovered the oldest bottle of wine during excavations of two Roman stone sarcophaguses in 1867? That bottle of wine dates back to at least 325 AD. Today this bottle is exhibited at the History Museum of the Pfalz in Germany. \nFind out if there are any wine activities at your local winery to celebrate the holiday.

For many\, little is known about the different types of skin cancer and the ways it can be treated. \nMelanoma is the most serious form of skin cancer and the fifth most common cancer in the UK\, with over 40 cases diagnosed every day. If detected early melanoma is almost always treatable. \nMelanoma is a complex disease and multiple gene alterations have been found to play a role in its progression. \nThe three most common gene mutations in melanoma are BRAF\, NRAS and c-KIT. Of these\, the BRAF mutation is most common: around 40-50% of melanoma patients have it. \nThere are treatments available that specifically target this type of mutation and a test to determine your BRAF status will be carried out when you are diagnosed. You should be told the result to help decide the best form of treatment. \nHow can I get involved in Melanoma BRAF Awareness Day?\nJoin the conversation on social media by following Melanoma UK and using the campaign hashtags #MelanomaBRAFAwarenessDay \nGet to know your BRAF status – check out our ‘Get under the skin of it’ \nAsk your medical team more questions – download our patient guide and checklist. You can also find out more using this handy resource. \nFor more information: \nContact Diane Cannon\, Melanoma UK: Diane.Cannon@melanomauk.org.uk \nFurther information on melanoma and BRAF click here

SUMMARY:National Conversation Week 2024
DESCRIPTION:What is National Conversation Week?\nNational Conversation Week is all about the simple\, pleasurable\, and rewarding art of simply talking to each other. \nWe’re very much a society that’s “always on” and\, unfortunately\, the art of human conversation is becoming lost in a sea of emojis\, swiping right (ask your single friends)\, chatbots\, and dwindling attention spans. \nWhether it’s keeping in touch with friends\, updating a colleague at work\, or trying to find the best insurance deal\, most of us are guilty of hiding behind a screen to send a quick text\, fire off an email\, post a social media message or search online rather than taking the take the time to speak with somebody. \nThat’s why we’re encouraging everyone in the UK to spend the week trying a little bit harder to engage with those around them be they a friend\, family member\, colleague\, or customer. We’re not asking you to throw away your phone and we’re not trying to send the UK back to the 90s (although arguably the music was better!). We simply want everyone to talk more. \nNational Conversation Week 2024 is focused on the inquisitive side of conversation\, the one that helps us gain an understanding of the world around us – asking questions. \nAsking questions is incredibly important\, as inquisitive conversations develop deeper knowledge and boost confidence\, as well expanding the human connection. However\, whether it’s concerns over wasting someone’s time\, admitting they don’t understand something or a general lack of self-assurance – for some people\, asking questions is a total no-go. \n\nWhen is National Conversation Week 2024?\nThis year’s National Conversation Week will be taking place from the 23rd – 29th May. \n\nHow to get involved in National Conversation Week.\nThroughout National Conversation Week and beyond\, we’re encouraging people to ask more questions – and most importantly\, combat the widespread fear around asking what they deem to be ‘stupid questions’. \nAsking questions is a uniquely powerful tool for unlocking value: it spurs learning and the exchange of ideas\, fuels innovation builds rapport and trust. \nSo\, next time there’s a question on the tip of your tongue\, go ahead and ask it. After all\, if you don’t ask\, you’ll never know. \nTo find out more about how you can get involved with National Conversation Week 2024\, visit www.nationalconversationweek.com

SUMMARY:European Neighbours' Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:Every Year at the End of May is European Neighbour’s Day\nNeighbour’s Day celebrations take place all over the world. The European Neighbour’s Day is held at the end of may and encourages residents groups and housing organisations to participate and organise their own individual events. \nWhat is the Goal of Neighbour’s Day? \nNeighbour’s day is organised by the European Federation of Local Solidarity. The aim of the day is to promote better community communication and cohesion. Social bonds are becoming thinner and people are leading more solitary lives. Neighbour’s Day is meant to counteract this and encourages people to have fun getting together. \nThe celebration was first launched in Paris in 2000. Ever since then\, more and more countries have been taking part. Last year\, for example\, there were more than 30 million participants from 36 different countries. \nHow You Can Take Part \nAll it takes to participate is the organising of a party with your neighbours. It could be in your own garden\, out in the street or in a local community hall. The idea is to get people together so that neighbours who rarely speak can talk to each other and have fun together. \nSupport is available from EFLS and there is even an award that housing associations\, organisers and mayors can put themselves forward for. A promotional video\, guide\, timetable and press kit is also provided for organisers needs.

SUMMARY:World Turtle Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:World Turtle Day is an annual event that has been taking place since 2000. It was founded by American Tortoise Rescue.\nThe purpose of World Turtle Day is to educate people about the things that they can do to protect the habitats of turtle and tortoises. It is also a celebration of the joy that these reptiles bring to so many people on a daily basis. \nThe day is celebrated in a number of ways all over the world. There are many people that dress as turtles while others may just decide to wear something green. People also get actively involved in projects that help rescue turtles that may be living in their local area. \nThere are also a number of resources that are made available to schools that teachers can use to create lessons around World Turtle Day. This is an important step in raising awareness in the future generation of the threats that turtles and tortoises face. It is also something that children enjoy getting involved in. \nAmerican Tortoise Rescue (ATR) was founded in 1990 by husband and wife team Susan Tellem and Marshall Thompson. It is a nonprofit organisation that rescues and rehabilitates all species of tortoise and turtle. It also does a lot of work on protecting the environments in which these animals live. They will always try and find new homes for the animals but if this is not possible then they will remain in the care of the ATR.

SUMMARY:National Taffy Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:May 23 is National Taffy Day. So for today only you can snack with your favorite candies at any time! \nTaffies are available in many flavors and colors. The most popular are fruit flavors\, like banana and lemon\, but actually anything can go. Even salt water! But the very first taffies were flavorless. Later molasses and vanilla were added to make candies better. That was the beginning of experiments with different flavors. Color experiments began much later and they were designated to match the flavor of the candies. One may think\, that chili taffy is the most unusual one\, but we disagree. Salt water taffy is the most interesting candy. Contrary to popular belief\, saltwater taffy isn’t made with saltwater\, but really contains water and salt. \nThere are many rumors on that how they were created. The most popular legend says\, that a candy store was flooded during the storm\, and the candies soaked in saltwater. When a little girl came to buy a taffy\, the owner said\, that she could offer her only salt water taffy. Little girl was delighted with it and bought one. She brought the candy to show her friends. Mother of shop owner heard the conversation and loved the name of the candy. That is how salt water taffy was born. \nChose your favorite taffies to celebrate the holiday and share them with your family and friends.

SUMMARY:World Goth Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:Whether you’re a full-blown cybergoth\, a J-goth\, gothabilly or anything in between\, World Goth Day is there to celebrate you. It started out as Goth Day in the UK in 2009\, but the following year\, organisers pushed it out to salute goths all around the world. \nIt was accidentally engineered by DJ Cruel Britannia\, who\, despite noting that goths tend to shy away from the limelight\, deserve a day to publicly embrace who they are. If you’ve gone to all that trouble to preserve what you believe is the ‘real you’\, he says\, don’t you think you owe it to yourself to shine for a day? \nWorld Goth Day celebrates the sub cultural aspects of the Goth subculture. Aspects of the culture like fashion\, music and art are celebrated by fashion shows\, art exhibitions and music performance. Many of the events feature local Goth bands\, and some have taken on a charity aspect with events in the UK and Australia supporting favoured charities like the UK Sophie Lancaster Foundation\, a charity that tries to curb prejudice and hatred against subcultures. \nThe event has evolved to be now celebrated by goths all around the world\, including the UK\, USA\, Canada\, Australia\, Singapore\, Brazil\, Mexico\, Spain\, Macendonia and South Africa.

SUMMARY:World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development 2024
DESCRIPTION:Three-quarters of the world’s major conflicts have a cultural dimension. Bridging the gap between cultures is urgent and necessary for peace\, stability and development. \nCultural diversity is a driving force of development\, not only with respect to economic growth\, but also as a means of leading a more fulfilling intellectual\, emotional\, moral and spiritual life. This is captured in the seven culture conventions\, which provide a solid basis for the promotion of cultural diversity. Cultural diversity is thus an asset that is indispensable for poverty reduction and the achievement of sustainable development. \nAt the same time\, acceptance and recognition of cultural diversity in particular through innovative use of media and Information and Communications Technologies (ICTs) are conducive to dialogue among civilizations and cultures\, respect and mutual understanding. \nIn 2001\, UNESCO adopted the Universal Declaration on Cultural Diversity and in December 2002\, the UN General Assembly\, in its resolution 57/249\, declared May 21 to be the World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development. \nThe day provides us with an opportunity to deepen our understanding of the values of cultural diversity and to advance the four goals of the UNESCO Convention on the Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions adopted on 20 October 2005: \nSupport sustainable systems of governance for culture \nAchieve a balanced flow of cultural goods and services and increase mobility of artists and cultural professionals \nIntegrate culture in sustainable development frameworks \nPromote human rights and fundamental freedoms

SUMMARY:Idling Awareness Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:What is Idling Awareness Day?\nIdling Awareness Day is a day created by vehicle technology specialist\, HH Driveright  to communicate the negative impacts associated with leaving a vehicle engine idling\, whether that is in standing traffic\, on a driveway\, or whilst stationary on the road for any other reason. \nHH Driveright hope that Idling Awareness Day will raise awareness of the totally unnecessary CO2 emissions generated and pushed out into the environment\, because of drivers leaving their engines idling when there is no need to do so. \nThe message behind Idling Awareness Day is that drivers taking the simple action of turning their engines off\, until ready to move again\, would help air quality\, particularly at key times\, such as when children are walking to or from school. \nThey also aim to show fleet and private drivers how the bad habit of idling is costing them far too much\, in terms of wasted fuel expenditure and how valuable savings could be made\, if drivers recognised that fact. \nHH Driveright hopes to plant the seed in drivers heads that ‘keeping on running’ is not the right thing to do. \nWhen is Idling Awareness Day?\nIdling Awareness Day 2024 will take place on the 17th May. \nHow to get involved in Idling Awareness Day 2024  \nMake a change.\nDrivers who regularly engage in engine idling are being asked to adopt a new habit and make a conscious effort to switch off their engines whilst stationary\, at those times when leaving the engine running is totally unnecessary. Making this small change in driving behaviour will contribute to a cleaner environment and better health and also help save money on fuel. \nFleet managers wanting to take steps to cut their CO2 emissions\, can also enquire about HH Driveright’s GM2020 technology\, which identifies when drivers are idling and also calculates CO2 emissions generated by their fleet.

SUMMARY:Water Saving Week 2024
DESCRIPTION:The UK has less available water per person than most other European countries. London is drier than Istanbul\, and the South East of England has less water available per person than some African countries. \nSurprised? Climate change\, population increases and changes in lifestyle have led to increasing pressure being put on our water supplies. The expected increase in world population up to 10 billion people will decline the available freshwater resources by half in 2050. \nAs a result\, it is more important than ever that we take care with how we use water. Taking positive action now can help to ensure that there is enough water to go around\, for us\, for businesses and for the environment. \nSave Money \nSaving water saves money. Installing simple devices such as water-efficient taps and showers will save both water and energy by minimising the use of heated water. An efficient showerhead could reduce household bills by up to £120 per year. Leaky loos waste around 400 litres of clean water a day – the equivalent of having an extra two people living in your house! \nClimate Change \nOur use of water and energy are closely linked. Operational emissions from the water industry account for nearly 1% of the UK’s total. And a major source of emissions is from using hot water within homes. Reducing the length of your shower or the amount of hot water you use for cleaning dishes therefore has a significant impact on your personal carbon footprint. Using water wisely also helps us adapt to climate change – it means the water we do have goes further. \nThe Environment \nUsing water efficiently means that we can minimise the amount of additional water resources being taken out of our rivers and aquifers\, especially as demand is rising. \nResilient Water Supplies \nAs water resources become scarcer\, building new infrastructure like reservoirs and desalination plants\, or finding new sources of supply\, becomes increasingly expensive. If we save water that is otherwise wasted\, we can reduce pressure on existing infrastructure and offset the need for more. Using water wisely also makes our supply more resilient against impacts from climate change\, such as droughts. \nReady to start saving?

SUMMARY:World Salt Awareness Week 2024
DESCRIPTION:Salt Awareness Week will take place slightly later from the 15th – 21st May in 2024. \nEach year Action on Salt organise a national ‘Salt Awareness Week’ and an international ‘World Salt Awareness Week’ to help raise awareness of the damaging effect of too much salt to our health. \nThe annual campaign is our chance to talk directly to the general public\, shining a light on the hidden salt in our favourite food products and encouraging those who don’t want their food\, and their children’s food\, laden with unnecessary salt to take action. We produce posters\, leaflets and factsheets\, which are then made available for order by hospitals\, GP surgeries\, health charities\, schools\, universities and anyone with an interest in salt\, food or health! These resources are intended for local community events during the week\, or for display year round in pharmacies and GP surgeries\, helping our salt reduction messages reach a wide range of people. Last year there were more than 300 supporting events up and down the country. \nFor many years\, our annual Salt Awareness Week campaign has been scheduled according to the UK policy calendar in March. We’re pleased to announce that the campaign will now take place in the third week of May – every year! \nThis new and consistent date allows supporters in the UK and internationally to plan their own activities to mark the awareness week ahead of time.  We look forward to working with you to get salt reduction onto the global agenda\, stay tuned for more information on the theme and resources for the week. \nHeart attacks and strokes are the biggest causes of death and disability in the UK\, with two people suffering from these often-debilitating conditions every 5 minutes. The strain this is having\, not only on the individual and their families\, but on our struggling NHS cannot be ignored.   \nMost cases are entirely preventable\, and so it’s vital we all take measures to improve our health and prevent these events from happening in the first place. It’s a little-known fact that eating less salt is one of the quickest and most effective ways of improving our health\, with just 1 less ‘pinch’ a day preventing over 4\,000 heart attacks and strokes every year in the UK. But how can we cut back on our salt\, when everything we buy is full of it?   \nFrom sliced bread to biscuits\, Friday night takeaways to ‘healthy’ salads\, everything has added salt. In fact\, three quarters of the salt we eat is already in the foods we buy\, and it’s impossible to take it out once it’s been added in.   \nJoin us as we call on food companies to Ditch the Salt for the sake of our hearts  \nIf you would like to be involved this year\, whether you are a food business\, a charity\, a community organisation\, a politician\, a school\, or a libertarian think tank\, we would love to hear from you!  \nPlease get in touch: cash@qmul.ac.uk   \nSupport our campaign and join the conversation on Twitter: #SaltAwarenessWeek

SUMMARY:National Stationery Week 2024
DESCRIPTION:If you think this is a celebration of not moving\, then your spelling needs a bit of work National Stationery Week is all about cheerleading the act of writing by hand\, and encouraging people from all around the globe to share details of their favourite pens\, pencils\, sharpeners\, and whatever fills their pencil cases. If they have one. It’s certainly an odd get-together\, but one that may be taking advantage of a shift in trends that may force people to abandon the venture of handwriting altogether. \nIn a world where people like us are typing this on a keyboard instead of writing it by hand\, it might be quite a good initiative; for all we know\, handwriting may be a trade as dead as lamp-lighting\, town crying or door-to-door sales. So\, get your Staedtler Noris school pencils\, your Helix 30cm rulers and your Bic for Her range of comfortable\, female-friendly medium ballpoint pens\, and go wild for a week.

SUMMARY:Mother's Day U.S. 2024
DESCRIPTION:The second Sunday in May is Mother’s Day in most countries.\nThis day is observed in many countries in Africa\, Europe\, Asia\, Australia and Americas\, but the tradition to celebrate the holiday is native to the USA. Although world-wide celebration of Mother’s Day is influenced by different traditions\, they are all common in origin. The very first Mother’s Day was celebrated in 1908 in the USA\, when Anna Jarvis held a memorial service to honor her mother. \nThen she started a campaign to establish Mother’s Day as a national holiday\, and later as international.The U.S Congress passed a law on May 8\, 1914\, that designated the second Sunday in May to be Mother’s Day. The holiday was proclaimed by President Woodrow Wilson on the next day as the holiday when all American citizens raised the flag in honor of the mothers\, whose sons had died in war. \nMother’s Day became very popular in other countries. The holiday includes churchgoing\, distribution of flowers (carnations are symbolic flowers) and family dinners. More than 80 countries around the world celebrate Mother’s Day according to the American traditions.

SUMMARY:National Limerick Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:Everybody needs a bit of silliness in their lives from time to time and National Limerick Day provides the perfect annual opportunity. Celebrated each year on the 12th May the familiar five line verse is renowned for its humorous\, sometimes bawdy themes. Instantly recognisable from the rhythm of the verse they are cleverly constructed to put a smile on the face.\nNational Limerick Day is set on 12th May to mark the birthday of Edward Lear\, the English writer known for his works of nonsensical prose and poetry. It was Edward Lear who was to popularise the Limerick in his A Book of Nonsense\, published 1846. His limericks were popular then and this form of nonsense literature has managed to retain its appeal to this day. \nLimericks will normally have the first\, second and final lines ending with the same rhyme\, while the third and fourth shorter lines have their own rhyme as illustrated below: \nThere was an Old Man with a beard\,\nWho said\, ‘It is just as I feared!\nTwo Owls and a Hen\,\nFour Larks and a Wren\,\nHave all built their nests in my beard!’ \nThis style of verse can act as a great introduction to the idea of poetry for children and National Limerick Day helps to maintain awareness of this brand of poem. Although limericks were not invented by Edward Lear\, holding National Limerick Day on his birthday is a suitable nod to the man who brought them to the larger public’s attention.

SUMMARY:World Topiary Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:World Topiary Day is a new event for 2021\, created by the owners of the world’s oldest topiary garden\, which is to be found at Levens Hall and Gardens in Cumbria and which dates from 1694. \nWorld Topiary Day celebrates the fantastic art of topiary (shaping and cutting particular types of tree into geometric shapes and forms that resemble common objects and people) and its heritage within the world of gardening. It seeks to extend the celebration to both public and privately-owned topiary\, whilst inspiring keen gardeners and lovers of al fresco living to adopt topiary’s style and structure within their own private gardens. \nWorld Topiary Day also fittingly focuses on the tranquillity and mindfulness that a topiary garden can provide\, through structure and form\, shapes and creativity\, in a world packed with stresses and uncertainties. \nTaking place on May 12 – the day on which Levens Hall and Garden’s ancient Radish Feast used to be staged – World Topiary Day channels the remarkable heritage home and gardens’ past\, to bring relevance to the present.

SUMMARY:World Ego Awareness Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:May 11th is World Ego Awareness Day. The object of this day is to increase awareness of the issue of ego\, and how it can impact upon everything that we do. Ideally\, there would be an emphasis on self-improvement and removing ego all year round\, but of course this is not always the case. A dedicated World Ego awareness day will help to focus attention on the issue\, and build broader understanding.\nThe Ego Awareness Movement was set up in 2018\, as a network to support those who are struggling with mental conditions relating to ego. The goal is to help prevent others from suffering from abuse or impairments because they are dealing with issues surrounding ego. \nExcessive Ego is Unhealthy \nAn excessively egoic mind can cause many afflictions\, including rage\, prejudice\, inferiority complexes\, feelings of superiority\, stress related violence\, racism\, sexism and more. Ego issues can cause a need for approval and struggles with empathy and relationships. Those who are struggling with their ego are more likely to feel loneliness and despair. \nEgotism is a learned behaviour\, and it is a form of emotional and psychological form of abuse. When they are told that they are being abused\, or being the victimizer\, they may struggle to accept that idea because it is so nebulous and hard to quantify the behaviours. \nTaking Part in World Ego Awareness Day \nWorld Ego Awareness Day is a day that allows people to raise awareness by sharing information and social media posts\, talking to advocates\, attending Meetup Groups\, and taking part in local events. Use this day to share ideas and information\, and meet others that are interested in the idea of taming the ego.

SUMMARY:National Mills Weekend 2024
DESCRIPTION:National Mills Weekend is the annual festival of our milling heritage and provides you with a fantastic opportunity to visit mills\, many of which are not usually open to the public. \nIn 2024 it will take place online on the 13th and 14th May and we hope even more mills than in previous years will open their doors and welcome visitors. \nUntil the advent of the steam engine\, wind and watermills provided the only source of power for many different processes – from making flour\, paper\, cloth to hammering metal and extracting oils. You can explore mills that produced\, or still produce these products\, some restored to working order\, some derelict\, some still working commercially. \nSearch for mills open in your area: \nTo find the mills open in your area\, search for your county in our Windmills and Watermills pages. Given the number of mills open\, we have divided the mills by their type – Windmills or Watermills. \nA new aid for visiting mills\, especially over National Mills Weekend. \nThose of you with Android on your phone can install a free app that means you can have the information from the website with you\, even when you are out and about\, quite possibly without an internet connection to contact the site. You can get it at: \nhttps://play.google.com/store/apps/details \nThe app links with your other apps\, such as mapping to give you directions to the various mills\, and if you do have an internet connection\, you can use it to pull up more information about many of the mills from Windmill World and the Mills Archive. \nThe app will be updated as details of this year’s Mills Weekend are finalised at various mills.

Asthma is not usually curable but can be controlled to certain extents\, depending on how it affects the sufferer. If asthma is controlled\, then sufferers can live relatively normal lives\, although some triggers may have to be avoided. \nAsthma is controlled by prevention medication for chronic symptoms and relief medication for flare-ups of asthma symptoms. Education and understanding are keys to effective control of asthma\, which can be fatal if not managed properly. World Asthma Day educates and raises awareness of the condition in the hope of relieving suffering and reducing deaths.

SUMMARY:National Teacher Day in the USA 2024
DESCRIPTION:Teachers play a very important role in the development of every nation\, that’s why their work is appreciated in many countries around the world\, including the USA. National Teacher Day is celebrated in the USA annually since 1985.\nThe history of National Teacher Day can be traced back to 1944\, however\, its origin is murky. Mattye Whyte Woodridge\, a teacher from Arkansas\, had an idea of establishment a Teacher Day and around 1944 he started corresponding with educational and political leaders. \nHe insisted on the need for a national holiday to honor the work of teachers.Woodridge wrote to Eleanor Roosevelt to describe his idea\, and she persuaded the 81st Congress to proclaim a National Teacher Day. But there was still a long way ahead for it. \nThe National Education Association\, Kansas and Indiana states lobbied Congress to create the national holiday for all teachers. And finally\, Congress declared March 7\, 1980 to be National Teacher Day for that year only. \nThe National Education Association continued to observe the holiday in March\, till its Representative Assembly voted to change the date in 1985. The date of the event was moved to Tuesday during the first full week of May\, that is also Teacher Appreciation Week.

SUMMARY:World Ankylosing Spondylitis Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:One Step at a Time with World Ankylosing Spondylitis Day 2024\nWorld Ankylosing Spondylitis Day 2024 will be held on May 6th and is the perfect opportunity for sufferers of the disease to connect with each other and raise awareness. Also known as WAS Day\, the event is organised by the ASIF. \nAS sufferers will know all too well\, Ankylosing spondylitis is a kind of arthritis that particularly affects the spine. Among the symptoms of this disease are pain and stiffness that run all the way from the neck downwards to the lower back. Although people who suffer from this condition often find walking difficult\, it is essential to take part in gentle walks each day to relieve the stiffness. \nPrevious World Ankylosing Spondylitis Day theme\, Walk AS One\,  encouraged people suffering from Ankylosing Spondylitis to embark on walks in scenic settings and to take part in the Selfie Challenge as part of Walk Your A.S Off. People who took part in the Selfie Challenge took selfies during their walk and posted the photos on Instagram. \nA huge number of people from different countries around the world take part in the event each year and more than a thousand photos are shared on Instagram. While walking is something that many people take for granted\, the photos clearly demonstrated the challenge that this everyday task poses to Ankylosing Spondylitis sufferers. The feeling of accomplishment that the photos captured also serve as an inspiration to Ankylosing Spondylitis sufferers who find it hard to leave the house and push people to set themselves goals.

SUMMARY:Firefighters' Memorial Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:Last May saw the UK mark its first ever Firefighters’ Memorial Day to commemorate the bravery and sacrifice of those who lost their lives in the line of duty. Thousands of firefighters\, bereaved families\, supporters and well-wishers observed one minute’s silence at midday at fire stations. There was an outpouring of support on social media\, with many users changing their profile picture to the FBU memorial badge and sharing pictures of memorial events.This year the Firefighters Memorial Trust\, supported by the FBU\, is hoping for even more activity to commemorate the 2\,524 members of the fire and rescue service who have died while protecting the public. \nThe day means a lot to the loved ones of fallen firefighters. Dave Faust’s son\, Billy\, lost his life alongside colleague Adam Meere tackling a fire in Bethnal Green\, East London in 2004. He says the day brings much comfort to his family. It means an awful lot to us to know the union and fire brigades are remembering the people they have lost\, he says. It is a really\, really great thing not only for families but for the firefighters themselves and the service. \nLet’s make this year’s Firefighters’ Memorial Day one to remember. Here are some ideas on how to mark the day. \nGet your MP to sign EDM 1115\nWrite to your MP asking them to sign EDM 1115 – Firefighters’ Memorial Day\, 4 May 2018. It calls for all Parliamentarians to attend their nearest fire station and take part in the minute’s silence at midday. Find all the resources you need to do this here. \nShout out on social media\nA video promoting this year’s memorial day has been put together and members are asked to share it with family and friends through social media. \nWear your Memorial Lapel Badge\nTo mark this year’s Memorial Day\, every member has received a newly designed FBU memorial lapel. These are for members to wear in respectful remembrance of fallen comrades. The badge was sent out with the most recent edition of Firefighter magazine. \nThe firefighters’ story: \n100 years of the Fire Brigades Union tells the story of the FBU from its inception in 1918 up to the present day and illustrates how the union and firefighting have changed over 10 decades. The film has already been shown at events in London\, Bristol and Glasgow and the union is urging members to organise further screenings across the country. Register your interest in organising a showing of the film here. \nGet people involved\nThis year\, a number of fire services will organise open days at stations with a one-minute silence as the centrepiece. An important aspect of the day is to enable local communities to honour their firefighters. Getting members of the public\, as well as retired and off-duty firefighters\, along to local fire stations for the midday silence is a wonderful way to mark the day.

In fact\, some of them are used by locals.\nCommemorative Star Wars coins became legal tender on the Pacific island of Niue in 2011.\nIt took as many as 10 puppeteers using both hands to operate Jabba the Hutt.\nThe trash in the Death Star garbage compactor scene was REAL. Apparently\, the smell was so bad that Mark Hamill burst a blood vessel from trying to hold his breath\, and the camera angle had to be adjusted for the rest of the scene so as not to show his injury. As for Peter Mayhew’s yak-hair Chewbacca suit? It reeked for the rest of production.\nThe voice of Yoda is done by Frank Oz\, who also happens to voice Miss Piggy from The Muppets.\nThe alien race of ET: The Extra-Terrestrial makes an appearance in Episode 1: The Phantom Menace- officially connecting the worlds of Lucas and Spielberg sci-fi.\nYoda from the prequels was almost a real-life monkey in a green mask carrying a cane\, however a monkey expert on set threw a spanner in the works. One of the crew who worked with apes in 2001: A Space Odyssey quickly pointed out\, Look\, the monkey’s just going to pull off the mask over and over again. It’s never going to work. The team soon enlisted Muppet master-crafter Jim Henson\, who suggested casting Frank Oz (formerly the voice of Miss Piggy) to bring Yoda to life.

SUMMARY:Bird Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:There are several ecological observances to honor birds.\nBird Day in the USA\, that falls on May 4\, is one of the oldest observances. Bird Day was established by school superintendent Charles Babcock in Oil City\, Pennsylvania\, in 1894. Babcock intended to advance bird conservation as a moral value\, that is why he introduced the holiday. \nThat year the holiday was celebrated for the first time by the schools of Pennsylvania. Babcock organized a holiday for children that had two main goals: to tell children about the importance of various bird species conservation and improve their environment with bird houses.Babcock’s idea gained nationwide support in the beginning of the 20th century\, and later it made its way to Europe. \nEven today Bird Day is observed in many countries\, but it’s not so popular as National Bird Day\, that falls on January 5. \nThere are other ecological observances to honor birds\, improve and protect their environment. These are International Migratory Bird Day and International Bird Day.

SUMMARY:National Day of Reason 2024
DESCRIPTION:National Day of Reason is a secular celebration\, annually observed on the first Thursday in May.\nThis legal celebration was established for all atheists\, humanists and secularists\, who can’t celebrate National Day of Prayer. The dates of both days coincide. National Day of Prayer was created for all Americans to turn to God\, gather together and pray for peace and prosperity of the nation. However\, not all Americans consider themselves to be members of any religion and thus they can’t pray. National Day of Reason was created only for them to have a reason to celebrate. However\, this secular holiday also raises public awareness of the threat to religious liberty posed by American government intrusion into the private sphere of worship. \nNational Day of Reason was created in 2003 by the American Humanist Association. In 2005 the observance was strongly advocated by the Center for Atheism and they marked it with blood donation. During the next years the popularity of this observance grew. In 2011 and 2012 the representative Pete Stark supported the proclamation of National Day of Reason in the House of Representatives and the resolution to honor this day was introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives. \nDifferent events are organized by many associations on National Day of Reason. These events vary from blood donations and food drives to secular celebrations as alternatives to National Day of Prayer. Many individuals protest observance of National Day of Prayer.

SUMMARY:National Truffle Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:May 2 is National Truffle Day. This day honors deliciously sweet chocolate truffles\, that everyone should enjoy today. \nTruffles were developed in France as a small chocolate ball made of ganache and rolled in cocoa. It was named after truffle fungus\, that chocolates resembled. It is believed\, that truffles were made by August Escoffier during the 1920s. One day his apprentice tried to make a pastry cream but accidentally poured hot cream into a bowl of chocolate chunks instead of the bowl of sugared egg. When chocolate and cream mixture hardened\, Escoffier found\, that he could form a lopsided ball with his hands. \nHe rolled his creation in cocoa powder and was surprised with its resemblance to real truffles from France and Italy. The concept developed further and different fillings\, as well as covers\, were made.Truffles can be filled with anything: cream\, caramel\, melted chocolate\, fruit\, nuts\, fudge\, nougat\, mint\, marshmallow\, liquor. \nIt became possible after Belgian chocolatier Jean Neuhaus invented hard chocolate shell. \nThere are different types of truffles: European\, Swiss and American. American truffles were created in the 1980s in San Francisco by Joseph Schmidt. His truffles had a half-egg shape with chocolate covering a mixture of dark and milk chocolate\, butterfat and coconut butter.

SUMMARY:AMKD Awareness Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:What is AMKD Awareness Day?\nThe American Kidney Fund (AKF)’s AMKD Awareness Day aims to spread awareness of APOL1-mediated kidney disease (AMKD)\, a spectrum of kidney diseases associated with mutations in the apolipoprotein L1 (APOL1) gene and linked to an increased risk for rapidly progressing kidney disease in people of Western and Central African descent. \nEveryone has two copies of the APOL1 gene\, but people who have Western and Central African ancestry\, including people who identify as Black\, African American\, Afro-Caribbean\, and/or Latina/Latino\, are at an increased risk of having a mutation in one or both of the genes. These mutations put people at a higher risk of developing kidney disease such as focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). \nIt is estimated that 13% of Black Americans have mutations in both genes\, the high-risk APOL1 genotypes. People who have both mutations of the APOL1 gene have a 1 in 5 chance of developing kidney disease and are more likely to develop kidney failure. \nWhen is AMKD Awareness Day 2024?\nCoinciding with National Minority Health Month\, AMKD Awareness Day will be recognized on the last Tuesday of April annually. AKF will provide resources and ways to engage and raise awareness of the important connection between APOL1 gene variants and kidney disease.

SUMMARY:International Dance Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:UNESCO has a habit of reserving 24 hours for everything in the field of performing arts\, so it’s perhaps no surprise that there’s an annual International Dance Day. It has been earmarked as a celebration for anyone who attaches value and importance to dance\, and acts as a wake-up-call for governments\, politicians and institutions which have not yet recognised its value.\nWhile this sounds just a little bit overboard\, you’d be surprised at how many places frown upon or outright ban the act of dancing. Even in the US\, strict Southern Baptists don’t dance\, and this led to the famous hard work of Chicago teen Ren McCormack\, who proved them wrong and overcame the community through the medium of dance in the hard-hitting 1984 documentary Footloose.

SUMMARY:World Day For Safety And Health At Work 2024
DESCRIPTION:Every day\, 6\,300 people die as a result of occupational accidents or work-related diseases more than 2.3 million deaths per year. 317 million accidents occur on the job annually; many of these resulting in extended absences from work. The human cost of this daily adversity is vast and the economic burden of poor occupational safety and health practices is estimated at 4 per cent of global Gross Domestic Product each year. \nThe United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development adopted on September 25\, 2015 encompasses a global plan of action with specific targets to end poverty\, protect the planet\, and ensure prosperity for all. With its adoption\, the capacity to collect and utilize reliable OSH data has also become indispensable for countries to fulfil their commitment to implement and report on some of the agenda’s 17 sustainable development goals and their targets. \nThe World Day for Safety and Health at Work is an annual international campaign to promote safe\, healthy and decent work. It is held on 28 April and has been observed by the International Labour Organization (ILO) since 2003. \nA national occupational safety and health culture is one in which the right to a safe and healthy working environment is respected at all levels\, where governments\, employers and workers actively participate in securing a safe and healthy working environment through a system of defined rights\, responsibilities and duties\, and where the highest priority is accorded to the principle of prevention.

SUMMARY:National Arbor Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:The United States was one of the first countries in the world to celebrate Arbor Day\, a holiday dedicated to tree planting.\nNational Arbor Day in the USA is celebrated on the last Friday in April. Besides\, each state celebrates its own state tree planting holiday. Arbor Day was founded by Julius Sterling Morton\, a Nebraska newspaper editor\, agriculturalist and statesman. Morton was a respected agriculturalist fascinated with trees\, he planted numerous trees on his estate. \nCurrently\, his former mansion and estate serve as Arbor Lodge State Historical Park.Morton came up with the idea of celebrating Arbor Day in the early 1870s. The first celebration was held in Nebraska on April 10\, 1872. \nIts participants planted an estimated one million trees throughout the state. By the 1920s\, each state had passed laws that stipulated a certain day to be state Arbor Day. In some states\, the holiday was named Arbor and Bird Day. In Nebraska\, Arbor Day is a civic holiday.National Arbor Day in the United States was established as a state holiday in 1885. \nIt was moved from April 10 (its original date proposed by Morton) to April 22 (Morton’s birthday). In 1989\, the holiday was moved to the last Friday in April. On this day\, Americans are encouraged to plant trees\, bushes and plants (if weather conditions allow) and care for their national environment.

SUMMARY:Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day is a non-profit educational program that revolves around parents taking their children to work for a day. In the United States\, the event is held on the fourth Thursday in April. \nIn 1992\, the Ms. Foundation for Women launched Take Our Daughters to Work Day. The first event was held on April 22\, 1993. Schools across the United States were provided with literature and other materials for incorporating career exploration in their curricula on the day before or after Take Our Daughters to Work Day. \nIn 2003\, the program was expanded to include boys. However\, most companies that took part in the program had allowed both girls and boys to participate since the beginning. This change allowed both girls and boys to explore careers\, contributing to fighting with gender stereotypes. \nIn 2007\, the Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day program became its own separate foundation. It is no longer organized by the Ms. Foundation for Women\, although Gloria Steinem (one of the Foundation’s founders) is a member of the program’s board of directors. \nOn the fourth Thursday in April\, many employees across the USA invite their children to work. The program also encourages them to invite children from shelters and residential programs.

SUMMARY:Parental Alienation Awareness Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:April 25 is Parental Alienation Awareness Day (PAAD) in the USA\, Canada and Bermuda.\nThis awareness day was created as a part of global awareness campaign about parental alienation. Parental alienation is described ” a behavior by a parent\, or an adult a child trusts\, such as a grandmother/father\, aunt\, uncle\, etc.\, whether conscious or unconscious\, that could create alienation in the relationship between a child and a parent.” \nAlso known as Hostile Aggressive Parenting\, the behaviour displayed can be mild and temporary but also extreme and ongoing. Obvioulsy any kind of behavior that is displayed as a result of parental alienation can be damaging upon a child and could have potentially life long consequences should the behaviour of both carer and child not be recognised and effectively addressed. \nNot to be confused with Parental Alienation Syndrome which relates to the behaviour of the child\, Parental Alienation focuses on the adults behaviour. \nParental Alienation Awareness Day recognised on April 25th aims to highlight to care givers the effects that PA could have on children and educate adults in order to identify signs that either they or others are behaving in a manner that could affect the children in their care. Parental Alienation usually involves one care giver attempting to turn a child against another often with a view to persuade the child that they wish to exclude the other parent from their life permanently. Typical types of behaviour displayed by parents can include: \nconstantly badmouthing/ belittling the other;\nlimiting the other’s contact;\nforbidding the child from discussing the other parent;\ncreating the impression that the other parent dislikes or does not love the child; or\ntrying to force the child to reject the parent to make the former partner a former parent as well. \nThe idea of PAAD belongs to Sarvy Emo from Canada. Emo introduced the observance of the day in the late 2005 with the original date on March 28. This date was changed to April 25 for marketing reasons and was put into practice in 2006. \nWith awareness comes education\, and with education\, comes the power to stop the mental and emotional abuse of children.-Sarvy Emo \nTo find out more about this awareness day\, visit one of the many dedicated websites aimed at raising awareness of the behaviours that could have a long lasting effect on our kids.

SUMMARY:English Language Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:English\, along with French\, is one of the two working languages of the United Nations Secretariat\, and one of the Organization’s six official languages.\nBecause it is so widely spoken\, English is often referred to as a “world language”\, or the lingua franca of the modern era.\nEnglish Language Day is a United Nations (UN) observance that people celebrate on April 23 each year. It coincides with William Shakespeare’s birthday and World Book and Copyright Day. \nCelebrate English Language Day\nEnglish Language Day aims to entertain and inform people about the history\, culture and achievements associated with the language.

SUMMARY:Saint George's Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:So here it is: another opportunity for red-blooded English people\, and a handful of tabloids\, to complain that St George’s Day isn’t a national holiday. That said\, they might have a point a mere 600+ years ago\, it was a holiday on par with Christmas in the UK. Known to have defeated a dragon which almost certainly didn’t exist\, St George was most famously killed for refusing to recant his Christian faith\, effectively opening the door to sainthood. In England\, the occasion is still quite the lacklustre affair indeed\, St Patrick’s Day probably gets more people in the pubs.\nBut for those looking to *really* celebrate St George\, he isn’t just the preserve of England; he’s particularly popular in Portugal\, Spain\, Bulgaria and even Russia\, for all manner of reasons and they all host events in his honour. In Georgia\, the St George Cross features prominently in the country’s flag though contrary to popular belief\, the nation wasn’t named after the man himself.

SUMMARY:World Book Night 2024
DESCRIPTION:If you’ve never found a book you’ve liked\, there’s a good chance that you’ve not tried that many books and World Book Night is here to prove to both children and adults that there are plenty of opportunities to get lost in a good book. Every year\, the occasion is coordinated by the Reading Agency\, a national charity that aims to help people become confident and enthusiastic readers. \nWorld Book Night celebrates both reading and books every year on April 23rd\, when books are distributed throughout the UK to specifically\, but not exclusively\, reach those who don’t often get the opportunity to read – hospitals\, prisons\, homeless shelters and care homes are a particular focus. Those who love a good book are asked to give out their own books to similarly affected people in their own communities or the wider UK. \nFor the past 6 years World Book Night has also been celebrated in the USA as well as the UK and Ireland\, with almost 50\,000 people giving away a million books across the three different countries.

SUMMARY:National Stop Snoring Week 2024
DESCRIPTION:Snoring noise and sleep disturbance – is it a threat to our health?\nThe sound of snoring is irritating and annoying and can lead to sleep deprivation for the bed partner. But the noise of snoring can also cause a number of health problems. \nWe all know how it feels if we have not had a good night’s sleep – we feel tired and sleepy all day\, bad tempered\, lacking concentration\, and generally irritable. Bed partners who are disturbed every night by snoring they experience these symptoms every day. \nThe noise level that starts to have an effect on sleep is around 40dB. The noise of snoring can range from about 50dB to 100+dB\, and research has consistently found that when exposed to noise at these levels\, it can have a negative effect on all areas of our wellbeing. \nNoise at night has become a major problem\, and many people consider that a good night’s sleep is a basic human entitlement essential for maintaining good health. Indeed\, sleep is so important that the World Health Organisation (WHO) document several categories of adverse health and social effects from noise. \nSleep disturbance\, hearing impairment\, daytime functioning\, mental health problems\, cognitive issues and negative social behaviour can be symptoms of being subjected to loud noise over a period of time. Sleep deprivation can also have a negative impact on body systems such as hormonal release\, glucose regulation and cardiovascular function\, leading to overall poor health. \nEvidence has shown that the louder the noise\, the worse the sleep. The quality of the noise is also an issue. Some noises can be subjectively annoying whilst others of the same level are not. It is well know that the noise of snoring is one that cannot be tolerated for long without disrupted sleep. \nSome bed partners who sleep with their snorer every night try to sleep through the noise and ignore it. However\, it has been shown that although you may sleep through the night\, the quality of sleep will be much reduced and you will not feel as refreshed in the morning as you should. Noise tends to reduce our deep refreshing sleep to more shallow sleep\, and will also reduce dreaming sleep. It is well documented that bed partners of snorers have been found to be at risk of hearing loss due to continuous noise exposure. \nOther partners find themselves re-locating to the spare room in the middle of the night in order to get a few hours of uninterrupted sleep. Many of them have feelings of guilt in leaving the bedroom – but they have a right to a good night’s sleep. Nevertheless\, the stress of the situation can put a great strain on the health and relationship of both partners. \nSo how can these issues be resolved?\nThe snorer must acknowledge the problem and take steps to resolve it. Snoring will not go away – it will only get worse if not addressed. \nSelf-help remedies – see http://www.britishsnoring.co.uk for help & information. \nIf you cannot resolve the snoring by self-help remedies seek professional help to find the cause and appropriate treatment. Make an appointment to see one of our sleep specialists in our clinic. http://www.thereigatesleepclinic.co.uk

SUMMARY:National Jelly Bean Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:April 22 is National Jelly Bean Day. Although these candies are mostly associated with Easter\, they are popular all year long. Jelly beans are likely to have appeared during the time of American Civil War. William Schraff\, a Boston confectioner\, urged his customers to send jelly beans to the soldiers. \nToday food historians believe\, that first jelly beans appeared around that time. The very first advertisement of jelly beans appeared on July 5\, 1905\, in the Chicago Daily News. They were sold for 9 cents per pound.Earlier jelly beans were associated with Easter because of their egg-like shape. However this changed\, that is why we can enjoy these candies anytime. \nAnd did you know\, that jelly beans were President Reagan’s favorite candies and he used them to quit smoking\, when he was the governor of California? Each year about 16 billion jelly beans are manufactured in the U.S. just for Easter. \nIf you line up all jelly beans eaten by folks during Easter holidays\, they could circle the Earth for more than 3 times!

DESCRIPTION:Girl Scout Leader’s Day\, also known as Girl Scout Leader Appreciation Day\, is an annual celebration held on April 22. It honors all Girl Scout volunteers who work as leaders and mentors. Girl Scout leaders are adult volunteers in Girl Scouting who serve as guides and mentors.\nThey help girls develop skills and confidence\, introduce them to new experiences that show Girl Scouts what they are capable of. Volunteers make an exceptional contribution to the development of the Girl Scout movement\, serving as role models. \nAlthough the effort put forward by volunteers is always appreciated\, a special day has been set aside to publicly acknowledge that Girls Scout leaders play a very important role in the organization. \nGirl Scouts even have special awards for adult volunteers such as Outstanding Volunteer\, Outstanding Leader\, Appreciation Pin\, Honor Pin\, and Thanks Badge.Girl Scout Leader’s Day is a perfect opportunity for girls\, their families and communities to recognize their adult volunteers and thank them for everything they’ve done. \nAs volunteers\, leaders do not seek any special rewards or recognition\, but it doesn’t mean that they don’t want to be thanked. They surely deserve kind words and signs of appreciation.

SUMMARY:World Haemophilia Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:World Hemophilia Day was started by the World Federation of Hemophilia (WHF) and is annually observed on 17th April. The international community started observing WHD in 1989 and April 17 was chosen to recognize Frank Schnabel’s the founder of WHF birthday. World Hemophilia Day is aimed at raising awareness about hemophilia and other bleeding disorders. It also helps to raise funds for patients who cannot afford hemophilia treatment as well as attract volunteers for the World Federation of Hemophilia.\nStatistics show that hemophilia A occurs in 1 out of 5\,000 male births and about 400 babies are born with the disorder annually. Additionally\, an estimated 400\,000 people around the world have hemophilia. About 75% of these people are unable to access adequate treatment or have no access to treatment completely. While there is no cure for this bleeding disorder\, there are very effective treatment options available. \nThe 29th World Hemophilia Day focuses on the importance of educating hemophilia patients and the general public about bleeding disorders. The day will also emphasize the importance of proper hemophilia care and treatment. This will be achieved through media events\, awareness campaigns\, and a host of activities held around the world. \n

SUMMARY:World Voice Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:WVD (World Voice Day) is a global annual event held on 16 April dedicated to the phenomenon of voice celebration. The aim is to show the enormous value of the voice in the people’s daily lives. Voice is an important aspect of healthy and effective communication. The WVD brings worldwide awareness of the necessity of preventing voice issues\, training the artistic voice\, rehabilitating the sick or deviant voice as well as researching the application and function of the voice.\nThe World Voice Day goal is to encourage people using their voice for pleasure or business to learn how they can take care of their voice plus know how they can seek help as well as training and also support research that is carried on the voice. The production of voice is normally studied and applied in lots of disciplines like biology\, art\, phonetics\, psychology\, physics\, music\, speech-language pathology and medicine. \nThe idea to dedicate a special day\, annually on 16 April to the voice was first launched in the year 1999 by the Society of Laryngology & Voice in Brazil. In 2002\, Professor Mario Andre\, the Portuguese laryngologist\, then the European Laryngological Society president\, suggested that people all over the world should celebrate World Voice Day. \nThat idea was developed further and adopted in different nations. In 2012\, Dr Filipa  from Portugal\, Prof. Tecumseh Fitch from Austria and Prof. Johan Sundberg from Sweden\, who were all voice researchers\, invited voice experts from several nations to form a global group for the World Voice Day celebration. Currently\, the group has 66 members; these members initiate\, as well as help\, coordinate the World Voice Day events in their respective nations.

SUMMARY:National Feet Week 2024
DESCRIPTION:What is National Feet Week?\nNational Feet Week takes place every year and asks everyone to prioritise their foot health. \nIf you have a toothache\, you would visit the dentist\, if you had trouble with your vision then you would automatically call on an optician. What about your feet? \nMany people ignore common foot complaints or indeed serious pain rather than go to see an expert. Podiatrists are there to help with all manner of foot conditions and can usually help resolve minor issues quickly. Problems with the feet can be an indication of other health issues and so it’s so important to take care of our feet as we would our teeth and eyes. \nMake National Feet Week a time to have your feet checked or to get that niggling issue sorted and make your feet your priority – after all they take you anywhere you want to go. \nWhen is National Feet Week?\nNational Feet Week 2024 will take place from the 17th -23rd April.

SUMMARY:Pan American Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:April 14 is Pan American Day\, a holiday that commemorates the First International Conference of American States.\nPan American Day originated in a resolution adopted by the Governing Board of the Pan American Union on May 7\, 1930. \nThe very first Pan American Day was observed on April 14\, 1931 and it was introduced by the International Union of American Republics\, a forerunner to the Organization of American States (AOS)\, as the commemorative day of creation of the Commercial Bureau of American Republics on April 14\, 1890. \nAOS was subsequently founded on April 30\, 1948 with the goal to strengthen peace and security\, prevent possible causes of difficulties\, seek solution to any political\, judicial and economical problems\, limit conventional weapons\, promote economic\, cultural and social development. \nThis holiday is observed by the countries of North and South America and it’s a great occasion of all Americans throughout the Western Hemisphere to strengthen their bonds and unite within 24 American nations. In some states of America it’s a national holiday (e.g. Honduras\, Costa Rica\, Uruguay\, Nicaragua). \nThe USA observes Pan American Day by Presidential proclamation. The entire week\, on which the holiday falls\, is observed as Pan American Week.

SUMMARY:Thomas Jefferson's Birthday 2024
DESCRIPTION:April 13 is Thomas Jefferson’s Birthday\, the third President of the USA. He is considered as an American Founding Father and the author of the Declaration of Independence. Thomas Jefferson was born on April 13\, 1743. He had a prominent career as a politician.\nHe was a spokesman for democracy\, represented Virginia in the Continental Congress\, embraced the position of Governor of Virginia\, served as the U.S. Minister to France and was the United States Secretary of State. \nPerhaps Jefferson’s most famous and biggest achievement was his contribution to the Declaration of Independence\, being the principal author\, proclaiming all 13 colonies to be independent sovereign states no longer governed by the British Empire. \nDuring Jefferson’s presidency\, he slashed military expenditures\, cut the budget\, and eliminated the tax on whiskey\, while simultaneously reducing the national debt by over 30%. Thomas Jefferson died in 1826 at the age of 83. Jefferson served his country for over 50 years of his life as a public official\, historian\, and philosopher. \nWhilst Jefferson is widely considered to be one of the worlds most liberal politicians and achieved much change and improvement in the lives of Americans throughout his life\, he has also come under scrutiny due to his dependace upon slavery and his beliefs that American Society remain a white mans domain. Clearly this contradiction of character and ideology has caused many to question his liberal beliefs and subsequently turned Jefferson into a paradoxical hero. \nA much documented and commented upon life (even appearing in hit musical Hamilton!)\, one thing that Thomas Jeffersons time on this earth did leave us with\, were the many inspiring and philisophical quotes; this being one of our favourites. \nWe hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life\, liberty\, and the pursuit of happiness. \nLove him or loathe him\, we definitely think he has a point don’t you? \n  \n.

SUMMARY:World Parkinson's Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:World Parkinson’s Day takes place on 11 April every year to raise awareness of Parkinson’s. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLiving with Parkinson’s is tougher than people think. But it doesn’t define you. You are still you. You can still do amazing things in spite of Parkinson’s. \nParkinson’s is different for everyone. Different symptoms\, different experiences. Diagnosis is scary and there’s currently no cure. Living with Parkinson’s can be challenging but one thing stands out. The Parkinson’s community is bright and brilliant. \nA community finding their light.\nEach of you will find your light in your individual ways. Maybe it’s trying to see the funny side. Fighting back against a condition that feels like it’s taking over your body. Finding new ways to keep doing the things you love. Or simply getting through a bad day\, and hoping tomorrow will be better. \nParkinson’s is different for everyone.\nParkinson’s is the fastest growing neurological condition in the world. Everyone has their own set of symptoms and deals with them in different ways. Everyone reacts differently to getting a diagnosis. Some people want to join a support group\, learn tai chi\, abseil down a building. Some people really don’t! \nHow can you get involved?\nThis World Parkinson’s Day\, we’re celebrating those moments of laughter and light that lift us up. That person who’s always there for you. A new challenge that you’ve faced head on and overcome\, or found a different way around. Sharing experiences with a community who get it\, because they’re going through it too. Not just on World Parkinson’s Day. But every day.

SUMMARY:National Siblings Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:Siblings day\, usually held on the 10th of April is a holiday that celebrates siblings relationships. April 10th is fast approaching\, and you should probably be calling your siblings to hatch up a plan on how to spend the day. Siblings are an incredible gift from God and anyone who has a brother or sister should not let the day just pass by without celebrating them.\nUnfortunately\, siblings day is not recognized by federal governments and the day is therefore not necessarily a national holiday. That means you’ll have to wake up and get to work just like any other day. However\, that is not a reason not to celebrate it. You can always take time off your busy schedule and get together with your siblings for some quality time. \nAmerica has been proactive in trying to get the day recognized as a national holiday by federal governments. 49 states in the United States have been in the forefront pushing for this agenda. India and Australia have also made inroads in getting the day marked appropriately. \nThe siblings day organization has also made tremendous efforts to get this important holiday recognized. The holiday is an invention of one Claudia Evart\, who invented it in a bid to celebrate the lives of her sister and brother who had died while still young.It is not every day that we get to be with our siblings especially when we grow up. Get involved in the national siblings day and take time to appreciate your brother or sister. You can join the conversation about siblings day through the hashtag #NationalSiblingsDay

SUMMARY:National Former Prisoner of War Recognition Day in the USA 2024
DESCRIPTION:National Former Prisoner of War Recognition Day is observed annually on April 9. \nThis day was introduced to honor American veterans of any wars that returned home after being released from prisons. The date of April 9 was chosen to commemorate the same day in 1942\, when United States forces were surrendered by the Imperial Japanese Army on the Bataan Peninsula\, beginning the Bataan Death March. All survivors were loaded to a box train and brought to the Camp O’Donnell. During the march prisoners were physically abused that caused their death. \nThe actions of Japanese Army were later judged to be a Japanese war crime. National Former POW Recognition Day had been observed from 1942 to 1976 on national level\, but later only some states held commemorative services. Memorial marches took place at New Mexico and Minnesota\, memorial service was held at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific in Hawaii. Due to the President Barack Obama’s initiatives\, and continuation by President Trump\, this day is observed on federal level.

SUMMARY:World Health Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:World Health Day’s message is simple: giving people access to healthcare without the prospect of financial hardship. This is regardless of where they’re from; they could be in Africa\, Asia\, South America or the United States. What matters to the World Health Organisation (WHO)\, the group behind it\, is that there’s Health for All. \nIt has its reasons\, too. The WHO asserts\, following countless studies\, that countries which invest in universal healthcare will make a sound investment in their human capital; indeed\, access to a very bottom line of care and financial protection will not only truly improve someone’s health and life expectancy\, but also protects countries from epidemics\, reduces poverty and the risk of hunger\, creates jobs\, drives economic growth and enhances gender equality. \nThat’s quite the ideal to push towards\, and a day that ought to be celebrated as much as any other on our calendar!

SUMMARY:Tartan Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:Tartan Day is a Scottish heritage celebration on 6 April. This day is the date when the Declaration of Arbroath signing took place in 1320. On this day\, Scotland got its independence from England\, and they were capable of using military action when attacked. \nOn 6 April 2004\, in Scotland\, Angus Council\, whose area includes Arbroath\, organised the first-ever Tartan Day festival. It has since joined the other regional councils in trying to promote its potential as a worldwide celebration. \nAlthough this day is a Scottish custom\, it is celebrated in other countries as well. In 1982\, ad hoc event was seen in New York City. Later in the nineties\, the modern form of the observation spread to other Scottish diaspora communities. Today\, Argentina\, the United States\, New Zealand\, Canada as well as Scotland celebrate the Tartan Day. \nIn Australia\, the same International Tartan Day takes place on 1 July\, which is the anniversary of the Act of Proscription repeal in 1747 that banned tartan wearing. Typically\, Tartan Days have Highland dancing\, parades of pipe bands plus other Scottish-themed events. \nArgentina has approximately 100\,000 people of Scottish ancestry\, the largest such community that is outside the world of people who speak English as their first language. The parade of Scottish Tartan Day was introduced in Buenos Aires\, the Capital city of Argentina\, on 6 April 2006. \nThe Scottish Argentine Society organises the event every year. A symbolic key to Arbroath Abbey gate is carried\, marking the date in 1320\, which inspired this celebration. The day is celebrated in New Zealand on a local basis and takes place on 1 July or the nearest Sunday.

And that is also honoured on Education and Sharing Day. \nEducation and Sharing Day is marked by events and parades\, some parades are quite big and well known\, for example the parade in Crown Heights\, Brooklyn\, New York\, which is run by Tzivos Hashem (Jewish Child International).

SUMMARY:404 Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:It is very common to see a 404 page not found error‚appear on your screen. It could be that the page you are looking for no longer exists\, but if you are accessing the Internet through a public library or a public school\, it is equally likely that a content filter is blocking you. \nPublic schools and libraries attract federal funding if they comply with the Children’s Internet Protection Act (CIPA)\, by applying content filters to block websites or pages which are considered harmful to minors or containing obscene material. \nThe Electronic Frontier Foundation wants to raise awareness of the over-aggressive use of Internet filters by such institutions. It is quite common for websites with crucial health information or educational and artistic material to be blocked. In previous years 404 awareness day has seen EFF hold on line teach-ins and offering to post experiences of page blocking\, on to their site. \nCurrently\, various states are trying to pass legislation to have obscenity filters pre-fitted to all computers\, cell phones\, tablets and other devices with Internet connectivity. They also want a payment of $20 to remove the filter for each individual device. EFF see this as a direct attack on U.S. citizens freedom to use the Internet. \n404 awareness day is also about defending your first amendment rights to privacy and free speech. The innocuous 404 error message can have a hidden agenda\, censorship. Get involved raise awareness and participate\, April 4th\, The U.S. 404 awareness day.

SUMMARY:International Dark-Sky Week 2024
DESCRIPTION:Join the International Dark-Sky Association for seven days of celebration\, learning\, and action!\n2024 International Dark Sky Week is\, April the 2nd – the 8th! \nCreated in 2003 by high-school student Jennifer Barlow\, International Dark Sky Week has grown to become a worldwide event and a key component of Global Astronomy Month. Each year it is held in April around Astronomy Day. \nIn explaining why she started the week\, Barlow said\, I want people to be able to see the wonder of the night sky without the effects of light pollution. The universe is our view into our past and our vision into the future. I want to help preserve its wonder. \nInternational Dark Sky Week draws attention to the problems associated with light pollution and promotes simple solutions available to mitigate it. \nAlso read 5 Ways to Celebrate Dark Sky Week! \nLight Pollution Matters \nThe nighttime environment is a crucial natural resource for all life on Earth\, but the glow of uncontrolled outdoor lighting has hidden the stars\, radically changing the nighttime environment. \nBefore the advent of electric light in the 20th century\, our ancestors experienced a night sky brimming with stars that inspired science\, religion\, philosophy\, art and literature including some of Shakespeare’s most famous sonnets. \nThe common heritage of a natural night sky is rapidly becoming unknown to the newest generations. In fact\, millions of children across the globe will never see the Milky Way from their own homes. \nWe are only just beginning to understand the negative repercussions of losing this natural resource. A growing body of research suggests that the loss of the natural nighttime environment is causing serious harm to human health and the environment. \nFor nocturnal animals in particular\, the introduction of artificial light at night could very well be the most devastating change humans have made to their environment. Light pollution also has deleterious effects on other organisms such as migrating birds\, sea turtle hatchlings\, and insects. \nHumans are not immune to the negative effects of light in their nighttime spaces. Excessive exposure to artificial light at night\, particularly blue light\, has been linked to increased risks for obesity\, depression\, sleep disorders\, diabetes and breast cancer.

On this day\, celebrate the natural healing powers of the environment by getting outside for some fresh air. Whether you’re solo or with a loved one\, getting your body moving while taking in nature can do wonders for our mental clarity and perspective. \nBeing mindful leads to living a more fulfilled life.

Take this day to reduce technology time\, one simple way is turning off phone notifications so you are not constantly being bombarded by outside noise. \nWhile drinking water throughout the day may seem obvious\, sometimes life can get busy and you realize you haven’t gotten up to refill your cup in hours. Staying hydrated is essential so our bodies and brains can function at their best. Take this day to monitor your water intake and ensure you are properly hydrating for optimal health. \n\nIn today’s fast-paced society our mind is constantly being pulled in different directions. This creates stress and racing thoughts\, which only intensify once we shut our eyes at night. Sleep is a crucial part of our overall well-being; good sleep improves our brain performance\, mood and health. On Harmonize Your Health Day\, make a conscious effort to set yourself up for a good night’s sleep. You can do this by eliminating screen time before bed and implementing relaxation methods such as taking a hot shower or reading a book before bed to unwind.

SUMMARY:Easter Sunday 2024
DESCRIPTION:The week before Easter is called Holy Week\, and it contains the days of the Easter Triduum\, including Maundy Thursday\, commemorating the Maundy and Last Supper\, as well as Good Friday\, commemorating the crucifixion and death of Jesus. In western Christianity\, Eastertide\, the Easter Season\, begins on Easter Sunday and lasts seven weeks\, ending with the coming of the fiftieth day\, Pentecost Sunday. In Orthodoxy\, the season of Pascha begins on Pascha and ends with the coming of the fortieth day\, the Feast of the Ascension. \nEaster and the holidays that are related to it are moveable feasts in that they do not fall on a fixed date in the Gregorian or Juliancalendars which follow only the cycle of the sun; rather\, its date is determined on a lunisolar calendar similar to the Hebrew calendar. The First Council of Nicaea (325) established two rules\, independence of the Jewish calendar and worldwide uniformity\, which were the only rules for Easter explicitly laid down by the council. No details for the computation were specified; these were worked out in practice\, a process that took centuries and generated a number of controversies. It has come to be the first Sunday after the full moon that occurs on or soonest after 21 March\, but calculations vary in East and West. Details of this complicated computation are found below in the section Date. \nEaster is linked to the Jewish Passover by much of its symbolism\, as well as by its position in the calendar. In many languages\, the words for “Easter” and “Passover” are identical or very similar. Easter customs vary across the Christian world\, and includesunrise services\, exclaiming the Paschal greeting\, clipping the church\, and decorating Easter eggs\, a symbol of the empty tomb. The Easter lily\, a symbol of the resurrection\, traditionally decorates the chancel area of churches on this day and for the rest of Eastertide. Additional customs that have become associated with Easter and are observed by both Christians and some non-Christians include egg hunting\, the Easter Bunny\, and Easter parades. There are also various traditionalEaster foods that vary regionally.

SUMMARY:World Bipolar Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:Each year World Bipolar Day takes place on March 30 and this year members of the public across the globe are being encouraged to use social media to help disseminate information and get the event’s hashtags trending on social media.\nWorld Bipolar Day is designed to raise awareness worldwide of bipolar conditions and to work to eliminate social stigma whilst providing information to educate and help people understand the condition. \nBipolar disorder affects a person’s mood\, which can swing from one extreme to the other\, with someone suffering from the disorder having episodes of depression or mania.

There are however several medications that can help to treat it. \nThe awareness day is an initiative organised by the International Bipolar Foundation in partnership with the Asian Network of Bipolar Disorder and the International Society for Bipolar Disorders. \nFor those using social media to post videos and photographs to help raise awareness of bipolar disorder\, you are encouraged to use the hashtags #WorldBipolarDay and #BipolarStrong whilst tagging @intlbipolar on Twitter and Instagram and @InternationalBipolarFoundation on Facebook.

SUMMARY:Good Friday 2024
DESCRIPTION:Good Friday is a Christian religious holiday commemorating the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and his death at Calvary. The holiday is observed during Holy Week as part of the Paschal Triduum on the Friday preceding Easter Sunday\, and may coincide with the Jewish observance of Passover. It is also known as Holy Friday\, Great Friday\, Black Friday\, or Easter Friday\, though the last term properly refers to the Friday in Easter week. \nGood Friday is a widely-instituted legal holiday in many national governments around the world\, including in most Western countries(especially among Anglican and Catholic nations) as well as in 12 U.S. states. Some governments\, such as Germany\, have laws prohibiting certain acts\, such as dancing and horse racing\, that are seen as profaning the solemn nature of the day

SUMMARY:National Vietnam War Veterans Day in the USA 2024
DESCRIPTION:National Vietnam War Veterans Day is celebrated on March 29th in the US and was recently made a recognized annual holiday in 2017 when it was signed into law by President Trump. March 29th is the day that the last of the troops were withdrawn in 1973.\nThis is a separate holiday from Veterans Day which is celebrated on November 11th\, that marks the end of the First World War. \nThe war originally started as a civil war between North Vietnam and the South Vietnam Government. The North Vietnamese Army was supported by communist allies such as the Soviet Union and China and the South Vietnamese Army was supported by anti – communist Allies such as the US\, Australia and South Korea. \nCitizens are encouraged to fly the US flag in honor of those who served in the Vietnam war as a way to thank the veterans and all those who made sacrifices during one of the longest wars in US history lasting almost 20 years. \nSome may wonder why it took 44 years for the troops to be celebrated\, but due to the huge number of casualties and domestic controversy a large part of the US population became opposed to the war.

SUMMARY:National Skipping Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:National Skipping Day will take place on Friday 24th March 2024 this year and is organised by Skipping Workshops. \nOver the years we have received a great deal of feedback from schools and it seems that participating schools fall into two groups: the first are those schools who promote playground skipping on a regular basis throughout the school year and see NSD as a means of celebrating this commitment . By contrast\, some schools don’t promote skipping throughout the school year but are happy to take part in NSD as a ‘one-off’ celebration of healthy exercise through skipping. The 2024 event is definitely of more interest to the first group (although we hope all schools will consider taking part.) \nFor schools taking part in the 2024 NSD we have developed a graded scheme of skills\, starting with challenges for Nursery and YR children moving forward to skills for children in Y5 & Y6 who have shown a commitment to developing skipping skills. There are 6 levels in all\, starting with ‘basic’ (for the youngest children) moving through to Level 5. For those children who complete the tasks in each level we have a certificate which we hope schools will present to those children who qualify. For each level we will send participating schools detailed staff notes to explain the various challenges. \nIf you register for NSD 2024 we will send you details of the skills involved in the basic level as well as Levels 1 & 2 plus a copy of the different certificates for each level. \nIf you feel able to host an all-day-skip visit from Skipping Workshops between now and the end of the academic year Book a visit with us and you will also receive a free set of double dutch ropes and a 7m long rope for your school.

SUMMARY:World TB Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:World TB Day\, which is observed on 24 March every year\, is designed to raise public awareness regarding the epidemic of TB (tuberculosis) and efforts of eliminating the disease. In the year 2012\, a total of 8.6 million people were sick with TB; 1.3 million people died from the infectious disease\, these were mostly people in the Third World. The World TB Day is one of the 8 official campaigns for global public health marked by WHO (World Health Organization). \nThe day celebrates the day in the year 1882 when Dr Robert Koch shocked the scientific community by making an announcement to a small scientist group that he had discovered tuberculosis cause\, the TB bacillus. During the announcement by Koch in Berlin\, tuberculosis was raging through the Americas and Europe. In every seven people that died\, one of them had died because of TB. The discovery of Koch paved the way toward diagnosing as well as curing tuberculosis. \nBill Clinton\, the former U.S president\, marked World TB Day in 2000\, by administering the DOTS (Directly Observed Therapy\, Short-Course) recommended by WHO to patients at the Hyderabad\, India-based Mahavir Hospital. Clinton stated that these are economic calamities\, human tragedies\, and much more than crises for anyone\, they’re crises for the whole world. The spread of TB is a worldwide problem and no nation is immune. \nToday\, a network of organisations\, the Stop TB Partnership and nations fighting tuberculosis organises the World TB Day to highlight the disease scope and how it can be prevented and cured.

SUMMARY:National Chip and Dip Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:There is nothing as satisfying as giving your palate an experience it will never forget. Even if that day comes but once a year\, TODAY IS THE DAY! The chip and dip national event existed for many years but gained popularity in the 1950s. The event became an annual celebration with March 23 being the official day for a chip and dip party.\nThe first dips to come into existence were the hummus and olive oil. The first two dips had their origin in the Middle East and the Mediterranean regions. Despite\, the ancient history of dips they continue gaining popularity today. However\, modern dips are different from traditional dips. Current dips consist of the following cheese\, guacamole\, and salsa. You can also use Ketchup or mayo if you do not have time to prepare a unique dip. \nDips are a perfect accompaniment for all kinds of chips\, potato\, tortilla\, and corn. You can also serve pretzels with a savory dip. However\, such an accompaniment was not quite popular in the United States until the 1940s. The popularity of chips and dips began after the Great Depression. \nFood expenses were not affordable by the middle-class families. To make a substitute for this\, they came up with the easy to prepare and cheap chips and dips\, which ultimately became a go-to party meal. However\, the most exciting fact about the first chip and dip was that the first bowl set used was a glass one

SUMMARY:National French Bread Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:It’s National French Bread Day on the 21st March. Why not bake a loaf of French bread to celebrate? There are many kinds of French bread\, but the most popular one is the baguette. It’s adored for its crispy exterior and soft interior. You might find this surprising\, but the dough recipe\, as well as the length and width of the ever popular loaf\, is enshrined in the law of France. That’s why the taste never changes. This is one law which gets the thumbs up from me.\nYou might find this hard to believe (I did)\, but the baguette was unknown until the dawn of the last century. French bakers always worked throughout the night to ensure fresh bread to the public in the morning. But in 1920\, a law was passed disallowing shifts from starting before 4 am. \nThis change in the laws of the land left the French bakers very little time to prepare the bread\, so they did some experimenting and ultimately invented the baguette. This bread baked in less time. The French public took this new bread to their hearts. It was a huge success. And of course\, it’s now part and parcel of French life. \nBesides the baguette\, there is a large variety of much-loved bread in France. There’s the ever-popular croissant\, as well as numerous others. So\, celebrate this special day with gusto by baking your own loaf of French bread. Enjoy with the whole family and say Vive La France’.

SUMMARY:World Down Syndrome Day 2024

SUMMARY:International Day of Forests 2024
DESCRIPTION:Forests are part of your life in more ways than you realize\nWhen we drink a glass of water\, write in a notebook\, take medicine for a fever or build a house\, we do not always make the connection with forests.

It was chosen specifically for this reason as it is an opportunity for positive change through awareness and prevention. \nThis institution was started in 2007 by HIV.gov to promote awareness and provide resources to Native communities after several studies identified them to be a high risk group in need of assistance. Risks of HIV in these communities can be heightened by a general lack of health care provisions and mental health assistance\, as well as societal stigmas surrounding homosexuality\, high rates of alcohol and drug use and general misinformation. This has led to estimates of up to a quarter of cases of Native people who are infected with HIV or AIDS being unaware that they have it. \nThere are various ways to participate in observing NNHAAD\, including visiting HIV.gov or other educational resources to learn more on the subject\, getting a routine test for HIV\, sharing information about HIV and AIDS prevention\, or raising money by supporting or organising an event to spread awareness.

SUMMARY:Spring Equinox (First Day of Spring) 2024
DESCRIPTION:This year in the northern hemisphere the Spring or Vernal Equinox falls on the 20th March. The equinox marks the day when day and night are the same lengths all over the world\, with the word equinox literally meaning equal night‚in Latin.\nThe spring equinox marks the change of the seasons and as the northern hemisphere begins to tilt towards the sun\, our days start to get longer and our nights shorter. In the northern hemisphere\, we enjoy the arrival of spring and the promise of warmer days. To our friends in the southern hemisphere\, however\, this marks the changing of their seasons to autumn. \nThe equinox does not always fall on the same day each year due to the fact that the earth orbits the sun on a slightly elliptical path\, meaning that the spring equinox can happen on either the 19th\, 20th or 21st of March. Although many cultures celebrate the whole day as the equinox\, the equinox is\, in fact\, technically the specific point in time when the sun crosses the equator. \nIn the northern hemisphere\, the March equinox is traditionally celebrated as a time of rebirth with many different cultures celebrating spring holidays and festivals such as Easter and Passover around the time of the equinox.

St. Patrick was a Christian missionary who lived in the 5th century and is credited with bringing Christianity to Ireland. He is also associated with driving the snakes out of Ireland\, although this is likely a metaphor for his work in converting the Irish people to Christianity. \nSt. Patrick’s Day was originally a religious holiday that was celebrated in Ireland as a day of feast and remembrance for St. Patrick. It was first made an official public holiday in Ireland in 1903\, and the day was marked by religious services and family gatherings. \nOver time\, St. Patrick’s Day became a more secular holiday\, and it spread beyond Ireland to become a global celebration of Irish culture and heritage. In the United States\, the first St. Patrick’s Day parade was held in New York City in 1762\, and today\, the holiday is celebrated with parades\, green-themed events\, and festivities in cities around the world. \nIn Ireland\, St. Patrick’s Day is still celebrated as a public holiday\, with parades and other events taking place in cities and towns across the country. The holiday has also become a major tourist attraction\, with visitors flocking to Ireland to experience the celebrations and learn about Irish culture and history. \nToday\, St. Patrick’s Day is a day to celebrate all things Irish\, from traditional music and dance to food and drink. It is a day to honor the contributions of Irish immigrants to communities around the world and to showcase the unique and vibrant culture of Ireland.

SUMMARY:Young Carers Action Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:Each year Carers Trust organises Young Carers Awareness Day. \nThe purpose of the day is to raise public awareness of the challenges faced by young people because of their caring role\, and to campaign for greater support for young carers and their needs. \nWhen Carers Trust set up Young Carers Awareness Day our intention was to make the public much more aware of young carers – who they are\, what they do\, the very real challenges they face\, and why they need support. \nAnd over the years\, we’ve had some great successes\, using the media and social media to really shine a spotlight on young carers. \nBut as Young Carers Awareness Day has got bigger each year\, we’ve also realised there are things we can do to make it better. And many young carers themselves have told us how they think the day could be improved. \nWe wanted to use that feedback from young carers and people working with young carers to make the day even better. So this year we are making some changes based on the feedback we have received. These changes are explained below. \nWe hope you agree these will make the day even better in 2024\, and help create real change for young carers and the support they receive! \nWe are changing the name! \nOne of the things we are always hearing from young carers is that what they want is support\, not sympathy. \nThis got us thinking. Yes\, it’s great to raise public awareness of young carers and what they do. But we need to do more than just encourage public sympathy for young carers and everything they have to do at home. We need to use the day to get people to take action to support young carers. \nSo from 2021 onwards\, the name has been changed to Young Carers Action Day. \nWe will be working with a group of young carers to ensure Young Carers Action Day 2024 features activities that will encourage real action and drive positive change for young carers. \nYoung Carers Action Day 2024 will take place on 15 March 2024. \nWe are including young adult carers \nUntil now\, the day has been for young carers up to the age of 18. \nBut one of the things our recent survey of young carers and young adult carers showed us is that young people aged 18 to 25 are experiencing many of the same challenges as younger carers. \nYoung adult carers need support too as they continue to balance their caring role with the difficult transition into early adulthood. So we will be planning activities and media coverage for this really important group of carers too! \nAnd we are working with young carers and young adult carers to plan Young Carers Action Day 2024 \nCarers Trust has set up a working group including young carers and young adult carers that is working actively to plan activities and media coverage for Young Carers Action Day 2024. With young carers at the heart of planning\, we will ensure that Young Carers Action Day 2024 delivers activities most likely to create positive change for young carers that addresses their needs. \nGot a question? \nWe realise that these are fairly significant changes and you may have questions. If there is something you’d like to ask\, or raise\, we’d love to hear from you! \nPlease feel free to get in touch with Vicky Morgan\, Head of Young Carers and Young Adult Carers. \nMedia enquiry? \nContact the Press team

SUMMARY:Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month 2024
DESCRIPTION:When a woman is diagnosed at the earliest stage\, her chance of surviving ovarian cancer for five years or more doubles from just 46 per cent to more than 90 per cent. \nHowever\, nearly half of GPs mistakenly believe symptoms only present in the later stages of the disease\, and less than a third of women in the UK are confident they know the symptoms. \nThis year\, tens of thousands of symptoms leaflets were read\, thousands of cakes were baked\, hundreds of outlandish outfits worn and more teapots brewed than we could count all with one aim in mind to get more women diagnosed at the earliest stage. Your fundraising means we will be able to do more to improve early diagnosis\, fund more life-saving research and provide much-needed support.

It celebrates the importance of schools’ football\, competitive or otherwise\, to pupils across England and provides teachers and coaches with tools and a motivation to further discuss the benefits of schools’ football within their educational environment. \nThe 2022 SFW campaign saw us embrace the growing participation in girls’ football in schools – promoting the importance of equal access to schools’ football for both girls and boys. The campaign alone saw over 56\,000 girls benefitting from footballing opportunities across the 7th – 13th February. In this new season\, following the incredible journey of the Lionesses and continuing the trend the ESFA have seen over the last two years\, we’ve seen the highest number of girls’ entries into National Cup competitions\, with over 120 schools entering girls’ teams for the first time.

This could be hosted at lunchtime\, after school or during PE lessons and yours could take any format that you wish. For example\, a group phase followed by a final\, or just a straight forward knockout competition. You could get other pupils involved by making banners to support teams or even writing supporter songs. Maybe you could host an all-girls tournament or encourage a record number of girls in your own school to take part in activity\, just like in our National Cups. \n Football formats  \nYou can choose to use whichever format of football best suits your requirements: 11-a-side\, 9-a-side\, 7-a-side\, 6-a-side\, indoor 5-a-side or even futsal if you have the facilities available. The objective of Schools’ Football Week is to get as many children playing or talking about football as possible and enjoying the game in a safe and secure environment\, regardless of their ability.

DESCRIPTION:What is Parent Mental Health Day ( #PMHD )?\n\n\nStem4’s Parent Mental Health Day (PMHD) encourages understanding and awareness of the importance of the family as a system where parent and carer mental health is as important a focus as young people’s mental health.

By getting parents\, carers\, and employers engaged in discussions\, PMHD aims to challenge the stigmas surrounding parents’ and carers’ mental health\, start a discussion\, and provide some resilience tips. \nstem4\, a charity that supports young people to build positive mental health\, is proud to be the UK founder of Parent Mental Health Day\, which started in 2022. \nWhen is Parent Mental Health Day 2024?\nParent Mental Health Day (PMHD) 2024 will take place on the 27th of January and the theme will be “Creating Positive Relationships”.

SUMMARY:Diverse Heritage Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:What is #DiverseHeritage ?\nDiverse Heritage Awareness Day is a  day to celebrate the fastest growing ethnic population in the UK and the World. We are becoming diverse and more mixed as people move and migrate across the world. Often termed as multiracial or mixed ethnicity\, that’s not enough to really describe us. \n \nThe term Diverse Heritage encapsulates those who have a background that perhaps embraces a meeting of multiple factors such as language\, colour\, faith\, caste\, and culture . \nWe are a growing number of people who through being exposed to multiple different values through our blended families never really seem to fit in with one or the other. We often feel that choosing one heritage over another seems like a rejection of that parent involved. \nWe are pioneers in a new world which calls for more tolerance and acceptance which we have learnt in our mixed heritage homes so we can move forwards\, comfortable with our choices and adapted way of life. \nWhen is Diverse Heritage Day 2023?\nWe are celebrating our diversity on 14th November. 2023 is our first awareness day! \nWhy is there a Diverse Heritage Day?\nA note from the founder of DHAD23; “I am raising awareness as I am of diverse heritage from equally diverse parentage going back 2 generations that I know of with my child the 4th generation. I am a mix of cultures\, different languages\, faith\, and mixed ethnicity that has been rather a lot to deal with. I felt that due to my parents coming from opposite sides of the world that the parent whose family were closest \, were the ones we socialised with more . I  felt my other parent was marginalised . I often felt isolated at school or at events because I couldn’t be categorised and what exactly was I ? \nSo\, I am Hungarian and Guyanese. Within that is Hindu\, Muslim and Catholic faiths and beliefs. Within that was a parent of mixed caste and interfaith\, from pioneer indentured parentage. Within that is the Hungarian\, Slovak\, Hindu\, English etc languages. Within that is my skin colour\, mixed. Within that was a mixed culture but learning to live the British way.  I used to call myself a dolly mixture ! I am now proud to be me.” \nHow can I get involved?\nYou can get involved in DHAD23 by sharing on social media using #diverseheritage #diverseheritageday #proudofmydiverseheritage \nWe welcome educators to use DHAD23 to encourage children to share about their backgrounds and to learn about other cultures amongst their peers . To learn that their classmate or colleague might have multiple ethnicities or languages or faith. That nobody should feel guilty about following their instinct and choosing the right way forward for them. \nThe discussion at school may help to raise awareness and if there are expectations at home\,  a child can feel capable and confident speaking with their family about their diverse heritage.

SUMMARY:National Bullying Prevention Month 2023
DESCRIPTION:As a parent\, as I’m sure many of you are\, one of my worst fears is to find that my children are either being bullied\, or being a bully themselves. I often wonder how we would deal with discovering either of these scenarios. In a world where bullying can take on many new and different forms\, it concerns me that not enough parents\, guardians\, families and friends would know what to do for the best. \nAlthough sad that such an awareness campaign has to exist in the first place\, it’s also reassuring and useful to know that the National Bullying Prevention Center run the National Bullying Prevention Month throughout the month of October with lots of information and support readily available to help anyone who may need it. \nEstablished by PACER\, a center for parent training and information for families and youth with disabilities\, the initial campaign was designed to raise awareness of the long lasting effects that bullying has on many children and young people and to change the perception that bullying is a part of growing up that cannot be challenged. Collaborating with education-based organizations such as the National PTA\, the American Federation of Teachers and the National Education Association they provide schools\, parents and students with the educational resources and support to better respond to bullying behavior. \nThroughout the month the campaign aims to work at a grassroots level with local schools\, community groups\, young people and families to address any issues faced by them\, signpost to organisations who may be able to offer support\, educate youngsters about the effects of bullying and promote kindness\, acceptance and inclusion. On a higher level they also work with news and media outlets encouraging them to promote their message and cause as well as communicating with education and public policy leaders about the role they play in bullying prevention. \nThe dedicated website has many ways you can show your support – be it as an individual\, school or community\, as well as offering ideas for activities for all school ages\, a really useful toolkit advising of lesson plans and details of special events planned across the nation. \nNow a nationally recognised awareness campaign with support from Facebook\, Disney\, Instagram\, CNN\, TLC and Yahoo! Kids and many\, many more organisations this is a campaign that should be embraced by all within our communities.

SUMMARY:International Day for Bids and Proposals 2023
DESCRIPTION:What is International Day for Bids and Proposals?\nGlobally\, when organisations specify their need for a particular product or service\, they publish invitations to tenders\, often called RFPs (request for proposals) allowing suppliers to compete for the chance to deliver it. The bid or proposal becomes the central means for the supplier to show why their solution\, approach\, expertise\, and experience should win the work. Fundamentally\, those who work on bids and proposals are the oxygen that helps businesses live\, grow\, and deliver everything that impacts your daily lives. \nWhy a Bids & Proposals Day?\nInternational Day of Bids and Proposals is an annual campaign to raise awareness of the profession and celebrate bid and proposal professionals who enable the successful pursuit of vital tenders every single day. \nBids and proposals are part of every country\, every industry\, and every business. They impact our everyday lives\, from bids and proposals to modernise technology in schools\, supply food and energy\, or host an Olympics! The right contract being awarded to the right supplier means we enjoy better schooling\, transport\, food\, entertainment etc. \nIt is a specialism to understand a customer’s requirements and needs\, develop effective win strategies\, manage a successful bid and proposal\, and create a compelling response that showcases the supplier to their best advantage and win the contract. Because of the importance this has on business sustainability\, many suppliers use specialist bid professionals to improve their chances of winning a contract. \nBid teams work tirelessly and seldom have the opportunity to appreciate themselves. As soon as they finish a bid\, they move on to the next one\, without any time to reflect! It is a cut-throat industry with tight deadlines\, tough competition\, and daily rejection; it takes serious resilience and buoyancy to be a bid professional. \nSo\, we’re choosing this day to globally celebrate bid teams to give them the opportunity to kick back\, take a breath\, and appreciate themselves\, their craft\, and their achievements. \nOur aim is simple: to increase understanding of the role of a bid and proposal professional and celebrate this decisive industry. \nWhen is International Day for Bids and Proposals 2023?\nThis year’s International Day For Bids and Proposals (IDFBP)\, will take place on the 29th of September. \nHow to get involved in International Day for Bids and Proposals 2023?\nHow will you celebrate?\nBid professionals can use today to reflect\, rest\, and recuperate. Grab a coffee with your colleagues and talk about what your role is all about and how you’ve helped your organisation achieve #Septender \n\nWant to improve your skills and gain industry-recognised qualifications? Check out the range of certifications offered by #APMP.\nRemember all those times you’ve given up evenings or weekends for bids? Finish work at 5 pm today – you’re worth it! #BidFreeFriday\n\nBid leaders and organisation leaders: \n• Want to know how your organisation can support bid teams to create more robust bids\, reduce stress on contributors and ultimately win more business? PAS 360 is the new global standard for bid and proposal management – find out how it can support your company\, whatever your size and bidding maturity. #MakeChangeWithPAS360 \n• Celebrate your team! Hold an internal award ceremony to reward individual and team achievements or host a coffee break with cakes for your team so everyone can catch up!

SUMMARY:Ask a Stupid Question Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:Ask a Stupid Question Day is an informal holiday that is celebrated in some American schools on September 28 (or on the last school day of September when September 28 falls on the weekend). The holiday dates back to the 1980s. \nIt was created by a group of teachers to encourage kids to ask more questions in the classroom. The problem is that kids often fear that their question is stupid and hold back because they are afraid of being ridiculed by classmates. But asking questions is an integral part of the educational process and an important source of feedback for teachers. \nAsk a Stupid Question Day is an opportunity for shy kids to speak up and ask any question they were afraid to ask\, no matter how dumb and irrelevant it may seem. This day aims not only to encourage students to be more inquisitive\, but to create a positive classroom environment where children are not afraid of being laughed at.Some schools outside the United States have started to celebrate Ask a Stupid Question Day\, too. \nIt is reported that some British and Indian schools have adopted it.

SUMMARY:World School Milk Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:World School Milk Day is held all over the world on the last Wednesday of September every year to celebrate the benefits and success of school milk programmes. \nThe first World School Milk Day was celebrated in September 2000 and has since become an annual event promoted by the FAO (Food and Agricultural Organisation of the United Nations). \nThe History \nIn the UK\, our history of school milk spans back over 100 years to the Provision of Meals Act 1906. This recognised that the provision of school food would allow needy and undernourished children to benefit more from education. Also\, that milk was a food that could be provided to children to prevent poor nutrition. \nAfter the Great Depression and the World Wars malnutrition among children was a great concern. So school milk schemes were introduced and developed. Throughout the 20th century\, the provision of milk to school children has helped combat undernutrition in times of scarcity. \nSchool Milk Today \nMilk and dairy products continue to play a role in children’s diets today. A carton of school milk provides a 4-6 year old with: \n52% of their recommended calcium intake \n59% of their recommended iodine intake \n100% of their recommended vitamin B12 intake \n59% of their recommended B2 intake. \nFor older children aged 7-10 years\, a carton of milk provides: \n42% of their recommended calcium intake \n53% of their recommended iodine intake \n100% of their recommended vitamin B12 \n47% of their recommended B2 intake. \nMilk also provides energy and protein for their growth and development. \nWorld School Milk Day is celebrated in many countries\, with an increasing number of activities taking place each year. Schools and milk providers are free to celebrate as they wish. Celebrations can be at any level – from national or regional events to individual schools. Find out more about dairy and health for primary school children.

SUMMARY:National Good Neighbor Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:On September 28\, National Good Neighbor Day is celebrated. \nThis annual holiday was first proclaimed by President Jimmy Carter in 1978. Mrs. Becky Mattson from Lakeside\, Montana came up with the idea of a national holiday recognizing the importance of good neighbors in 1971. In 1978\, U.S. President Jimmy Carter announced the creation of a national day aimed at raising public awareness that good neighbors help achieve human understanding and build strong\, thriving communities. \nSince then\, National Good Neighbor Day has been acknowledged by various levels of government and is celebrated every year. The holiday was originally celebrated on the fourth Sunday in September\, but in 2003 its date was changed to September 28. \nOn this day\, Nextdoor.com\, a social network for neighborhoods\, announces the recipients of Nextdoor’s Good Neighbor Award. Everyone can nominate a neighbor or a group of neighbors by writing a short story about what they have done to help their local community and make it a better place. \nNational Good Neighbor Day is the perfect occasion to honor the people who make significant contributions to creating safer neighborhoods and stronger communities across the United States.

SUMMARY:Fire Door Safety Week 2023
DESCRIPTION:A door’s a door’s a door\, right? No\, a fire door is an engineered safety device. Fire doors are a crucial part of the passive fire protection of every commercial\, public and multiple occupancy building. They save lives and property. \nThere are about 3 million new fire doors bought and installed every year in the UK\, the vast majority made from timber. Fire doors are often the first line of defence in a fire and their correct specification\, maintenance and management can be the difference between life and death for building occupants. However\, they remain a significant area of neglect\, often the first thing to be downgraded on a specification and mismanaged throughout their service life\, propped open\, damaged and badly maintained. Consequently\, we have created Fire Door Safety Week: \nTo raise awareness of the critical role of fire doors\, drawing attention to specific issues such as poor installation and maintenance. \nTo encourage building owners and users to check the operation and condition of their fire doors and to report those that aren’t satisfactory. \nTo link together the initiatives of many organisations with common interests in the fire door and passive fire protection industries. \nTo engage and educate people\, helping the whole building industry and every property owner to understand the correct specification\, supply\, installation\, operation\, inspection and maintenance of fire doors. \nSupported by a wide range of organisations\, Fire Door Safety Week is the brainchild of the British Woodworking Federation\, BWF-CERTIFIRE Scheme and Fire Door Inspection Scheme (FDIS). \nHow can you get involved? \nWhy not: \nUpload our logo and put a link to Fire Door Safety Week on your website. \nTweet about Fire Door Safety Week or publicise your support on other social media – don’t forget to use the hashtag #FireDoorSafetyWeek. \nHold a free CPD session for local businesses about fire door safety. \nOpen up your factory and invite your local MP to see what you do to promote fire door safety. \nUse our videos to raise awareness among your staff or building users. \nCarry out an inspection of your fire doors\, or get a FDIS Certificated Inspector to help. \nRun a communications campaign or leaflet drop to tell your tenants about fire door safety. \nDisplay posters showing three simple fire door safety tips. \nSpend a day in your local builder’s merchants giving buyers advice on third-party certificated fire doors and the correct components. \nDistribute copies of our free fact cards on all aspects of fire door specification. \nLaunch a new product or service that helps more people specify\, buy\, install or maintain their fire doors. \nSend an email to all your customers saying you support Fire Door Safety Week and letting them know about this website. \nSo many options\, so much scope! What will you choose to do?

SUMMARY:National Punctuation Day in the USA 2023
DESCRIPTION:National Punctuation Day is an annual observance held on September 24. \nIt was established to promote the correct usage of punctuation in the English language. National Punctuation Day was created by Jeff Rubin in 2004 to emphasize the vital role of punctuation marks in written English. In the English language\, the simple differences in punctuation can produce the sharp differences in meaning\, that is why correct punctuation is so important. \nThere are two major styles of punctuation in the English language: British (logical punctuation) and American (traditional punctuation). They differ primarily in the way they handle quotation marks. The rest of the basic punctuation rules are essentially the same in all varieties of English. Sadly these rules are often ignored\, which may lead to misunderstanding. Punctuation is as important as any other aspect of the written language. That is why Rubin founded National Punctuation Day.National Punctuation Day is marked with special lessons at schools\, contests\, fundraisers\, and other appropriate events and activities. \nIn 2006\, Jeff Rubin and his wife\, Norma\, launched Punctuation Playtime. It is a program for elementary school students that focuses on reinforcing important punctuation lessons.

SUMMARY:National Hunting and Fishing Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:National Hunting and Fishing Day is celebrated in the United States on the fourth Saturday in September. \nFirst proclaimed in 1972 by President Richard Nixon following a suggestion in 1960 by local Pennsylvania gun shop owner Ira Joffe\, the day was originally suggested as an official day of gratitude to outdoor sportsmen. The first official Outdoor Sportsmen Day was celebrated in 1970 with the day becoming nationally recognized two years later. \nContrary to popular belief\, anglers and hunters are avid supporters of wildlife conservation. They stand for sustainable use of game and fish. American outdoor sportsmen have made a great contribution to protecting and improving vital habitat and saving many species from unregulated exploitation. \nNational Hunting and Fishing Day focuses on raising public awareness about the importance of the wise use of natural resources\, promoting wildlife conversation and outdoor sports. On this day\, local\, state\, regional and national organizations hold fishing- and hunting-related events providing participants with an opportunity to experience traditional outdoor sports. \nNational Hunting and Fishing Day\, celebrated the fourth Saturday of every September\, remains the most effective grassroots efforts ever undertaken to promote the outdoor sports and conservation. \nWith events taking place across the country\, why not visit the dedicated website to find out whats going on in your area. This is not only a great opportunity to learn a new sport\, but also to become more involved with conservation and environmental issues.

SUMMARY:National Public Lands Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:National Public Lands Day (NPLD) is a national annual observance that typically falls on the last Saturday in September. It focuses on volunteer conservation of public lands (lands held by central or local governments). \nOrganized each year by the National Environmental Education Foundation (NEEF)\, National Public Lands Day promotes the connection between people and the environment by inviting everyone to get outside. Public lands in the United States include parks\, forests\, and wildlife management areas. Most of them are open for recreational use. \nThe Nations largest volunteer event\, the event was first held in 1994 when 700 volunteers worked at three sites. The initiative turned out a huge success and became an annual tradition. \nBy 2014\, participation grew to about 175\,000 volunteers at more than 2\,000 sites throughout the United States and Puerto Rico. NPLD focuses on caring for public lands across the country\, educating the citizens about the natural resources and environment. Whether it be from damage caused by natural disasters and extreme weather\, human activities or the host of other factors that impact upon our public lands threatening the health and well being of the people and wildlife who depend upon them\, public land managers\, volunteers\, and others who steward these special places work tirelessly to restore these areas\, make them more resilient to future threats\, and ensure that people and wildlife continue to enjoy them for years to come. \nIt is supported by federal agencies\, state\, regional and local governments\, and non-profit organizations. NPLD volunteers collect invasive plants\, build and maintain trails\, plant trees\, shrubs and other plants\, remove trash from trails and other places. They also donate money through volunteer services to help improve public land sites. \nFree for all to attend and volunteers welcomed\, what a fantastic opportunity to get outdoors\, breathe in the fresh air\, enjoy the scenery and even volunteer!

SUMMARY:World Car Free Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:A Car-Free Day encourages motorists to give up their cars for a day. Organised events are held in some cities and countries. \nSeptember 22 is World Car Free Day. According to The Washington Post\, the event promotes improvement of mass transit\, cycling and walking\, and the development of communities where jobs are closer to home and where shopping is within walking distance. Studies showed that for short trips in cities\, one can reach more quickly using a bicycle rather than using a car. \nThe events\, which vary by location\, give motorists and commuterists an idea of their locality with fewer cars. While projects along these lines had taken place from time to time on an ad hoc basis starting with the 1973 oil crisis\, it was only in October 1994 that a structured call for such projects was issued in a keynote speech by Eric Britton at the International Ciudades Accessibles (Accessible Cities) Conference held in Toledo (Spain). \nWithin two years the first Days were organized in Reykjavík(Iceland)\, Bath (United Kingdom) and La Rochelle (France)\, and the informal World Car Free Days Consortium was organized in 1995 to support Car-Free Days worldwide. \nThe first national campaign was inaugurated in Britain by the Environmental Transport Association in 1997\, the French followed suit in 1998 as In town\, without my car! and was established as a Europe-wide initiative by the European Commission in 2000. In the same year the Commission enlarged the program to a full European Mobility Week which now is the major focus of the Commission\, with the Car-Free Day part of a greater new mobility whole. \nAlso in 2000\, car free days went global with a World Carfree Day program launched by Carbusters\, now World Carfree Network\, and in the same year the Earth Car Free Day collaborative program of the Earth Day Network and the World Car Free Days collaborative.

SUMMARY:EveryWoman Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:What is Everywoman Day?\nEveryWoman Day shines a light on common yet poorly understood women’s health conditions which can be painful\, long-lasting and life-limiting. It aims not just to raise awareness but to raise hope\, too. \nMuch is said now about menopause\, and the challenges in the workplace. That’s progress. Let’s remember there a many other health conditions which limit a woman’s ability to be her full\, magnificent self in the workplace and at home. \nEveryone is encouraged to share their story on the EveryWoman Day website. Each woman’s story takes awareness beyond a medical standpoint and offers an understanding of the deeper impact on her capacity to work\, to have a fulfilling loving relationship\, to look after her children\, to live an active life and to socialise. \nAnd when women share whatever they have found that works for them to manage these conditions\, other women can benefit. In the absence of scientific research\, this is a powerful resource. \nIt’s not as if hope is found in new cures or new medicines becoming available. Women must manage their symptoms as best they can with whatever lifestyle changes\, medicines and therapies are available to them. \nWhen is Everywoman Day?\nEverywoman Day 2023 will take place on the 22nd of September. \nHow to get involved in Everywoman Day.\nHere’s what you can do to raise awareness of women’s health problems: \n• Encourage people to contribute their story directly to the EveryWoman Day website\, or put them in touch with the EveryWoman team and they can write their story\n• Share stories from EveryWoman Day website through social media\n• Write to the Women’s Health Minister and Women’s Health Ambassador\n• Donate to one of the charities associated with EveryWoman Day\, Women’s Health Concern and Bladder Health UK\, or organise a fundraising event (and share that on social media too!)\n• Come up with your own creative idea for spreading the word – we’re all ears! \nThe stories are illustrated with ‘belly selfies’ with a striking message written on them. You can write on your belly using pen\, face paint or lipstick\, draw on paper\, do an electronic design\, use chalk on a pavement\, whatever you are inspired to do. Take a photo and post it on the website with your story. \nIt is shocking that each of the UK nations has its own women’s health ministers and ambassadors\, yet there is so little progress in solving these problems. \nThe more women share their stories about how they cope with their conditions\, the more women learn how to cope with theirs…and the more our hopes can grow. \nProblems such as interstitial cystitis (IC)\, lichen sclerosus\, endometriosis and many others have no cure\, can severely limit quality of life and the ability to live normally day to day\, and last forever. \nThese health problems can strike any woman regardless of background and other factors. Every Woman is susceptible. \nAnd every woman who lives with these conditions is incredible and deserve recognition. These are ordinary women who must do extraordinary things every day to overcome their pain and other symptoms\, just to keep life ticking over. \nWomen are inspiring\, resourceful\, strong and wonderful\, but we don’t always want to talk openly about problems with lady parts. That’s why this project is illustrated with a striking messages painted on belly ‘selfies’. The pictures don’t show faces but can show what women are up against\, and how they cope. \nDr Karen Gardiner\, MD of Purple Orchid\, the women’s self-care company which established EveryWoman Day said: “The names of conditions are written onto the bellies of women whose ages span five decades. Women’s troubles happen in this area\, and we wanted to symbolise the fact that they have been kept under wraps\, but they no longer need to be ‘below the belt’. \n“There has been little drug development for decades for many of these diseases\, in part because money goes to better known and\, some would argue\, more important diseases. \n“If we talk about these conditions and their effect on our daily lives\, that may change. If the incidence and more importantly the impact is better understood\, the pharmaceutical industry may consider more research and subsequently\, development. \n“Women can be stuck with these problems for life\, therefore they have to manage them for life. So\, by sharing information\, we can reduce the feelings of isolation. More women can potentially improve their symptoms and reduce their suffering. Lives can be improved by talking about what works and what doesn’t\, what makes things worse\, how to cope with the debilitating effects and simply how we get through each day of pain\, exhaustion\, depression and other difficulties.” \nIt’s not always Mum who knows best\, sometimes daughters have more knowledge. And a modern girl’s problems can be recognised by an older woman who has lived through a similar experience in a different era. If we can acknowledge and celebrate our own strengths\, share stories\, inspire each other and make difficult topics easier to discuss\, we can all live longer in better health. \nDr Gardiner said: “We women can give ourselves a hard time about the things we haven’t done\, rather than appreciating the things that we have achieved. \n“So\, get involved\, don’t be silent. EveryWoman needs you.” \n[/fusion_text][/fusion_builder_column][/fusion_builder_row][/fusion_builder_container]

DESCRIPTION:September 21st every year is World Alzheimer’s Day around the world. This is an international campaign aimed at raising awareness and challenge the common stigma that surrounds Alzheimer related dementia. \nAlzheimer’s is a progressive disease that impairs memory and other mental functions. It is the most common form of dementia that generalizes memory loss and loss of other essential cognitive abilities that are serious enough to interfere with an individual’s daily life. \nThe first Alzheimer’s month campaign was launched in 2012. From previous studies\, an average of 2 out of 3 people globally have little or no understanding of Alzheimer’s disease and associated dementia in their countries. \nSince its inception\, the impact of World Alzheimer’s Month is increasing. However\, the stigmatisation and lack of information surrounding dementia remains to be a global problem that calls for global action. Most people often think that this disease is a normal part of ageing. \nThough this may not be true\, a greatest risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease is increasing age. This is evident by majority of Alzheimer’s patients being 65 years or older. This doesn’t completely classify the disease as an elderly disease. This is because there are approximately 200\,000 Americans under 65 suffering from disease. \nFor this year’s event\, organisations and interested individuals can get involved by supporting awareness through contacting the Alzheimer’s association in their specific country.

SUMMARY:International Day of Peace 2023
DESCRIPTION:International Day of Peace is an International event that is observed each year by nations all across the world. \nThe event is commemorated on 21st of September each year. It is a day that was set aside by the United Nations General assembly for everyone around the world to devote to keeping peace\, despite any differences they may have\, as well as play a part in building a peace culture that will last for generations to come. \nInternational Day of Peace was started way back in 1981 through the resolution 36/67 by the United Nations General Assembly\, in an effort to reconcile people around the world. Last year’s theme was\, Together for Peace: Respect\, Safety\, and Dignity for all. This year’s theme is yet to be announced. \nCommunities across the world observe this day in different ways. Some observe the day through organising peace workshops\, engaging in feasts that bring people together for peace\, putting up peace poles\, and engaging in peace activities that bring people together. An activity that is common in people observing this day is the one minute silence that is observed at 12 noon across all time zones. This activity was started to create a ‘Peace Wave’ that moves around the globe.

SUMMARY:International Talk Like A Pirate Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:Argh me hearties! So yer ‘ere to learn the vast secrets of this sacred day that soon be upon us!? \nYou guessed it\, we’re referring to ‘International Talk Like a Pirate Day’. If you’re here to get all the deets about when it is\, why it is and what to do for it\, then keep on reading! \nOrigins \nThis celebration was started in June 1995 (more than twenty years ago!) A innovative Ol’ Chumbucket and Cap’n Slappy (formally known as John Baur and Mark Summers) sat down and decided to start the holiday as a fun way to dress up as pirates and talk like them too! \nThis day offers an opportunity to not only mess around but to give something back. People can dress up as pirates and raise money for charities\, what’s better than that!? \nWhat Do I do? \nThis part is easy. Make sure you grab yourself an eye patch\, bandana\, baggy shirt and a little toy parrot or monkey. Make sure you use awful grammar and jump right into that accent. You could even have a pirate-themed party with edible gold coins and balloon sword fights! Don’t forget to get out Treasure Island or Pirates of the Caribbean if you’re not feeling as academic. \nPublic Service Announcement \nThough this is a pirate imitation day\, please do not pillage\, steal or brawl. Actual pirates aren’t that great\, so best to go for the parody version!

SUMMARY:UK Savings Week 2023
DESCRIPTION:What is UK Savings Week\nUK Savings Week aims to get people engaged with saving\, whether they are already savers; have no savings but could save a little; or are unable to save right now but may be able to when times improve. \nFirst launched in 2022\, UK Savings Week invites all organisations that want to see people’s financial resilience improve and for them to make the best of their savings to get on board and engage the nation in the great savings conversation.  \nHaving a regular savings habit can provide a safety net when things go wrong. Even a small rainy-day pot to fall back on when an unexpected bill lands\, can provide security and reduce worry in difficult times.  But savings are not just for the unexpected. A growing savings pot can help achieve future dreams and aspirations\, whether that’s saving for a weekend break or a holiday of a lifetime\, a new dress or a new home\, a new hobby or career-changing qualification\, Christmas presents or a wedding. Getting into the habit of putting some money aside each month towards a future goal will help to ensure that dream is achieved. \nWhen\, how and how much we save\, will be different for everyone. UK Savings Week is all about helping individuals to save their own way\, when they can. Creating a regular habit is often the best way to start\, and whilst the amount saved might flex depending on other expenses in the month and could be small: once the habit is formed a savings pot can start to build. \nFor those who are already savers\, UK Savings Week aims to help people think about making most the of their savings\, by understanding different types of savings account and finding the best rate of interest. \nWhen is UK Savings Week\n UK Savings Week 2023 will run from the 18 – 24 September \nHow to get involved in UK Savings Week\nTo get more information on this year’s UK Savings Week\, please fill in the contact form and we’ll get in touch to share how you could get involved and to answer any questions you may have.

SUMMARY:National Eye Health Week 2023
DESCRIPTION:This year’s National Eye Health Week is set to take place from the 18th to 24th September 2023. Like other awareness campaigns\, this campaign aims to inspire and educate people on the importance of eye health and why they should go for regular sight tests. \nMany people often fear losing vision; yet take minimal steps in caring for their eyes. This is what the National Eye Health Week aims to change. Having said that\, here are some of the interesting facts about eye health you may not know. \nAbout 2 million persons are living with severe sight loss in UK\, that can significantly impact their daily activities. Half of this population’s sight loss is avoidable. \nA sight test easily detects the early signs of eye conditions such as glaucoma\, which can be treated soon. During any sight test\, other health conditions including diabetes and high blood pressure can be detected. \nTo maintain healthy eyes\, you should eat well\, avoid smoking and wear eye protection during bright sunlight. \nThe importance of eye sight towards the overall wellbeing\, independence and quality of life of an individual is too important to be ignored. This is why eye care charities\, health professionals and organisations across the UK are encouraged to join together during this week to promote the importance of eye health and need for regular tests.

SUMMARY:Adult Learners Week 2023
DESCRIPTION:Save the date: 18 – 24 September 2023 (with promotional activity taking place throughout September)\nThe campaign celebrates the achievements of learners and adult learning provision across Wales\, inspiring thousands of adults each year to engage in a wide range of learning opportunities whilst raising awareness of the value of adult learning. \nLifelong learning is seen by many as part of the solution to a range of pressing global issues including rapidly changing economies and labour markets\, climate change policies and a mental health crisis. It can improve productivity\, cultivate better health and well-being\, engage people in democratic processes; and build a more equitable society. \nIn Wales we are facing many challenges – there is a growing trend of working-age adults being under-qualified and lacking essential skills. Almost half of adults from the lowest socioeconomic groups have not received any training since they left full-time education. \nWe want Adult Learners’ Week to be the catalyst that inspires and mobilises people to change their story to lead better and more fulfilling lives. The campaign will offer people a second chance and the confidence they need to move forward and access learning opportunities and to seek advice and guidance. \nThis is achieved by collaborating with a whole host of private and public organisations on the promotion of online and in-person taster sessions\, events \, short courses\, resources\, promotional activity and guidance and support on careers and skills – all signposted through the Adult Learners’ Week online learning platform. Adults can learn new skills\, gain a qualification\, explore career pathways\, improve their health\, wellbeing and confidence\, connect with other people or discover a new passion or hobby. \nTogether we can create increased visibility and momentum for lifelong learning in Wales and inspire more adults to move forward and build a better future with confidence. \nWe want to work with you to promote opportunities for adults to build their skills and to make lifelong learning more accessible. \nJoin our network of partners to deliver live tutorials and events for the campaign and we’ll promote any courses and resources on the site. \nWe want to work with you to: \n\nPromote your provision and engage with new and existing audiences by offering opportunities to learn\nConnect people in Wales to get support with health & wellbeing\, learning and employment opportunities\nBecome a part of the Wales-wide campaign partnership that advocates lifelong learning\nShare positive and aspirational stories that will inspire others to participate in lifelong learning\n\nIf you would like to join our campaign complete our Stakeholder form to express your interest in the campaign. \nPlease note\, if you already have an account on our campaign website or you have previously worked with us\, you won’t need to complete the form. \nIf you have any questions or need help with your account\, please email: alwevents@learningandwork.org.uk  \nThe campaign is coordinated by Learning and Work Institute Wales (L&W) in partnership with the Welsh Government and the European Social Fund and other partners such as The Open University in Wales\, Agored Cymru\, Qualifications Wales\, Adult Learning Wales\, and National Centre for Learning Welsh.

SUMMARY:Organ Donation Week 2023
DESCRIPTION:During Organ Donation Awareness Week we will continue to raise awareness of the important need for families to talk about organ donation to help save lives. \nThe campaign last year saw a tremendous amount of media coverage\, social media activity and support on the ground at events. \nWe’re excited to announce that the dates for this year’s Organ Donation Week have now been confirmed. The dates for the campaign will be Monday 18 – Sunday 24 September\, and we have already started planning our activities for the week. \nOur ‘Leave Them Certain’ campaign will be the main focus of the week.

SUMMARY:National Coding Week 2023
DESCRIPTION:How to get involved with National Coding Week. \nChildren are part of a confident Digital Generation having grown up with the internet\, smart phones and coding classes. However\, many adults have missed out on the digital revolution and feel left behind. The aim of National Coding Week is to give adults the opportunity to learn some digital skills. \nWe want to create taster sessions for parents\, teachers\, business leaders\, school leavers\, the unemployed\, people with autism or those who have retired. It’s open to everyone! We are not expecting people to become coders after one session! For many people it takes years of practice and experience but these taster sessions can be the first step on a journey into a digital business or digital career. \nChildren can inspire adults \nChildren are learning digital skills in school or through coding clubs such as CoderDojos. We therefore would like these clubs to open their doors to parents for a one-off session in which the children will teach the adults some of the skills they have learnt. \nLibraries can act as focal points \nLibraries are in an ideal position to act as a focal point and can host a coding session. Either the staff can lead the session or someone who is confident and familiar with coding from the local community can share their skills. Read CILIP’s blog: Libraries‚ how they can improve our Digital Literacy \nSchools and Code Clubs can get involved \nChildren are learning coding but many parents don’t understand what their children are doing and many non-specialist teachers and governors feel they have missed out on these skills. \nThis year in partnership with Makewaves we are offering children the opportunity to learn and share new skills by collecting digital badges. \nShare Your Skills \nShare Your Skills Badge involves planning a digital skills lesson and delivering it to your class mates. Create a simple lesson plan of what you will be teaching your class. The lesson‚can be any time from 15 minutes to 60 minutes and it can be taught by a single person or a group of 5 maximum. Each individual needs to have a clear role. \nStay Safe Online \nStay Safe Online Badge involves planning a stay safe online lesson and delivering it to your class mates. Research a stay safe online topic\, examples are listed below but you could choose any topic that is important to you: \nData Protection | Cyber Security | Social Media Management | Privacy settings | Passwords management | Knowing who you are communicating with (stranger danger) \nFor more details check out the National Coding Week / Makewaves Digital Badges \nWeb\, app\, creative and digital businesses can throw open their doors \nThose with the expertise can share their skills and have fun teaching people the basics of coding. There are many training organisations who offer courses throughout the year. They can contribute to the week by offering taster sessions to encourage people to sign-up. \nTech Hubs \nThere are hundreds of tech hubs with amazing businesses working from them. The tech hubs are giving start-ups a platform from which to launch businesses and inspire others. These can be the perfect venue for the week and we would love them to be involved. \nAdvice \nKeep it simple‚ it might simply be showing people the resources available online at Codex \, Codecademy or TeamTreehouse. \nIf you are able to organise it\, get a friendly local web development agency\, ICT teacher or FE college tutor to lead the session. \nA simple introductory session can be to get people familiar with tags / code that make up HTML and CSS and show how they work together. \nSign up for the event at codingweek.org \nOrganise a public or private event and pin it to the map \nHold the event\, take photos and tweet using the hashtag #nationalcodingweek \nWe would love to hear from people willing to organise events including libraries\, schools\, digital agencies\, tech hubs and coding clubs / CoderDojos. If you let us know what you’re planning we can give you a shoutout and feature you in the run up to the week. \nWhy learning Digital Skills is important \nThe digital economy has grown enormously in the past 8 years and clusters of digital businesses are springing up everywhere. \nIt has been reported that 50% of digital product developers are self-taught and as many as 83% of app developers have taught themselves. \nThere are now more people working in tech jobs in the south east of England than the whole of California but there is a skills shortage and many adults could contribute to the digital economy if they had the confidence to get started.

SUMMARY:National HIV/ AIDS and Ageing Awareness Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:National HIV/AIDS and Aging Awareness Day is a U.S. awareness day observed on September 18 every year. Like most HIV/AIDS-related awareness days\, it is supported by AIDS.gov\, an internet portal for all federal domestic HIV and AIDS resources and information. \nAccording to the information provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)\, people aged 55 and older accounted for 26% of the 1.2 million people living with HIV (diagnosed or undiagnosed) in the U.S. in 2013. Older patients are often diagnosed late in the course of infection\, which leads to shorter HIV-to-AIDS intervals. In 2014\, about 40% of people aged 55 and older were diagnosed with AIDS at the time of HIV diagnosis. \nIn addition\, thanks to the huge advancement in medical science\, more and more people are living longer than ever before therefore there is an increased need to understand the impact of the aging process upon those living with HIV/Aids. \nThere are several reasons for late diagnosis of HIV/AIDS in older people. Medical institutions are less focused on testing older people\, while people aged 55 and older think that they are not exposed to the risk of infections or confuse the early symptoms of HIV with the signs of aging. \nNational HIV/AIDS and Aging Awareness Day was launched to raise public awareness of the challenges that older Americans diagnosed with HIV have to face\, as well as of the importance of HIV prevention\, testing\, care\, and treatment among people aged 55 and older. \nShow your support for this campaign.

SUMMARY:Balance Awareness Week 2023
DESCRIPTION:IMAGINE LIVING LIFE WITHOUT BALANCE. \nClose your eyes and stand on one foot. It’s hard right? Now imagine having that same disoriented feeling on two feet\, and with your eyes open. Balance is something most of us take for granted. It’s automatically hardwired into our bodies at birth\, evolving and adapting as we grow and age. While basic balance is innate\, some of us are able to perfect or even master our balance through exercise and practice. We don’t often think about our balance‚until of course\, we lose it. \nWhile most people may not be familiar with the word vestibular‚relating to your inner ear\, brain\, and sense of balance‚many of us have likely experienced the awkward or sometimes scary feeling when we momentarily lose our balance. Maybe it’s taking a wrong step or getting motion sickness aboard a jostling boat. Or that nauseating head-spinning sensation after one too many alcoholic beverages. Eventually our balance comes back and life moves on. \nThis is not the case for the over 69\,000\, 000 Americans who suffer from the mostly invisible and frequently debilitating symptoms of chronic imbalance association with a vestibular disorder. Whether it comes on gradually over time or all of the sudden\, bouts of dizziness\, vertigo\, and nausea can make many of life’s more routine tasks virtually intolerable. Just try getting a good night’s sleep with a high-pitched ringing in your ear. Or try to focus on something as everything around you appear to be spinning. \nFor those living with a vestibular condition\, everyday life becomes a progressively challenging obstacle course to navigate. \nThat is why VeDA pioneered Balance Awareness Week in 1997: to be an opportunity each year to come together and shine a light on these otherwise invisible balance disorders. \nIf we’re all more aware\, then we can better understand and be empathetic to those who need our support the most‚our family\, friends\, co-workers\, and neighbors. While many of these balance disorders are incurable\, faster and more accurate diagnosis\, along with effective coping strategies can greatly improve quality of life. \nJoin us this September for Balance Awareness Week\, and together we can pave the way toward restoring a life rebalanced. By participating in Balance Awareness Week\, you can increase awareness about vestibular disorders and funds to support patients in their journey back to balance. \nHOW DOES IT WORK? \nPut Balance Awareness Week on your calendar for September 17-23\, 2023 \nSet a personal fundraising goal to support VeDA and vestibular research \nRegister your Personal Campaign Page (Coming soon!) \nShare your Life Rebalanced story to help inform and inspire people \nTake a selfie with a Flat Flamingo and share it on social media using hashtag #BalanceAwarenessWeek2023 \nInvite friends & family to LIKE VeDA on Facebook to learn more about vestibular disorders\, and share our educational posts \nWHERE DOES BALANCE AWARENESS WEEK TAKE PLACE? \nBalance Awareness Week is a series of virtual events\, both online and in communities around the world. Check vestibular.org for opportunities to participate\, lend your voice\, and take action!

SUMMARY:Constitution Day (Citizenship Day) 2023
DESCRIPTION:Constitution Day (also referred to as Citizenship Day) is a United States federal observance that commemorates the signing of the U.S. Constitution and honors those who have become U.S. citizens by coming of age or naturalization. \nIt is observed annually on September 17. \nThe delegates to the Constitutional Convention signed the final version of the United States Constitution on September 17\, 1787. In 1911\, Iowa became the first state to recognize the anniversary of this event as Constitution Day. In 1917\, a committee formed by the Sons of the American Revolution started promoting this day. \nThe law establishing the present holiday was enacted in 2004. On this day\, all federal agencies and publicly funded educational establishments are required to provide educational programming on the history of the American Constitution. When Constitution Day falls on a weekend or another holiday\, its observation is moved to the closest weekday.

SUMMARY:European Mobility Week 2023
DESCRIPTION:Europeans love variety in food\, in fashion\, in music so why is it that when it comes to transport so many of us stick to one mode? This year’s European Mobility Week encourages us to explore the many different options available for getting from A to B\, and to think about the mode that best suits our particular journey. \nPrevious year’s European Mobility Weeks have focused on multimodality‚- the mixing of transport modes within the same journey or for different trips. Many of us instinctively opt for the same method of transport when moving around without necessarily examining the needs of the specific journey. The car may be the best way to take your family to the seaside\, for example\, but is it the best way to get them to the city centre where space and access is often limited? \nThis year\, why not test out different transport modes: cycle to the gym to get a head start on burning calories\, bring your bike on the train to beat the rush hour traffic\, or take the bus and then stroll to the shops to avoid parking fees! \nAs well as providing health benefits\, significant savings can be achieved through a multimodal approach\, particularly when short journeys are completed through walking and cycling. \nEmbracing the concept of multimodality means rethinking the way we move about our cities\, and having the willingness to try out new forms of mobility. \nFrom a city’s perspective\, it requires the political will to support alternative transport methods. \nBy introducing some sustainable transport modes into our journeys\, not only can we have a positive impact on the environment\, we may just find that we’re fitter and happier\, with some extra spending money too!

SUMMARY:Great British Beach Clean 2023
DESCRIPTION:The Great British Beach Clean is a week-long citizen science event\, where hundreds of beach cleans take place up and down the UK. Litter data collected drives our conservation work and also feeds into the International Coastal Clean-up (ICC). \nThis year’s Great British Beach Clean will take place between Friday 15th – Sunday 24th September 2023. \nOn every clean we ask people to run a litter survey: recording all the items of rubbish they find in a 100m stretch. We use this data to campaign for change. \nAnd we have seen some great results – the plastic bag charge\, banning microplastics in personal care products\, better wet wipe labelling\, and supporting a tax on single-use plastic items. \nBut there is still so much to do to stop the litter plaguing our beaches. \n425 litter items found per 100m of beach surveyed at last year’s Great British Beach Clean \n30% of beach cleans last year found face masks and PPE \n55% drop in plastic bags found on UK beaches since 5p charge introduced \nBut it’s not job done. We need to gather more and more data to wage war on other types of beach litter\, and you can help. \nWant to run your own beach clean event? Find out how to become an organiser \nMake 2023 your year to save our seas. \nTo get involved this year find an event near you – events as a list or on a map. Sign up for the event/s you’d like to attend and the beach clean organiser will be in touch. \nThe Great British Beach Clean includes the Great Channel Islands Beach Clean and Great Northern Irish Beach Clean.

SUMMARY:National POW / MIA Recognition Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:National POW/MIA Recognition Day is an observance that honours whose who were prisoners of war (POW) as well as those who are still missing in action (MIA). \nIt is observed in the United States on the third Friday in September\, which in 2023 will fall on the 15th of September. \nNational POW/MIA Recognition Day was proclaimed by the United States Congress in 1998. It is one of the six national observances when the POW/MIA Flag can be flown. The other five observances are Armed Forces Day\, Memorial Day\, Flag Day\, Independence Day\, and Veterans Day. The POW/MIA flag was created by the National League of Families in 1972 and was officially recognized by the Congress in 1990. It is a symbol of concern about United States military personnel taken as POW or listed as MIA. The POW/MIA flag should be no larger than the United States flag. It is typically flown immediately below or adjacent to the national flag as second in the order of precedence. \nOn National POW/MIA Recognition Day\, the flag is flown on the grounds of major military installations\, veterans memorials\, government agencies\, federal national cemeteries. \nIn the armed forces\, a single table and chair draped with the POW/MIA flag are displayed in mess halls and dining halls. Such installation symbolises the hope for the return of these who are missing in action.

SUMMARY:International Day of Democracy 2023
DESCRIPTION:International Day of Democracy is held on September 15th\, and is held on the same date every year\, and tends to have a theme\, an example of a previous year’s theme was ‘Democracy and Conflict Prevention’. \nInternational Day of Democracy is an annual day that has been running for 10 years. It is a United Nations\, (UN)\, day of observation\, the purpose of the day is to review the state of democracy in the world and uphold and and promote democracy and its principles. The day was founded on the 20th anniversary of the First International Conference of the New or Restored Democracies\, which promoted global democracy. \nOn the day\, individuals and organisations of all kinds work together for democracy and hold events to raise awareness of democracy\, including conferences\, discussions and debates\, as well as press conferences and publicity campaigns though distribution of leaflets\, posters and flyers\, often with the UN logo on them. Major events to commemorate the day are held at UN headquarters. \nDemocracy and human rights are closely linked\, and UN covenants on these matters are to the fore on this observance day. Democracy is a state where the people have rights\, especially to vote for and elect their government and regulation from among themselves\, rather than being controlled by a government over whom they have no right of dissent\, election or protest. Lack of democracy can lead to lack of rights or a voice\, and this impacts on human rights as set out by the UN.

SUMMARY:World Lymphoma Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:World Lymphoma Awareness Day is on 15 September. Every year\, along with our members\, we bring together patients\, caregivers\, healthcare professionals and others concerned and affected by lymphoma in 50 countries around the world to raise awareness of cancers of the lymphatic system. \nThis year\, we’re launching the Small Things Build Confidence campaign. Living with lymphoma can leave a person feeling uncertain\, with many questions\, worries and doubts.

SUMMARY:Rheumatoid Arthritis Awareness Week 2023
DESCRIPTION:Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) Awareness Week 2023 takes place between September 11th and 15th\, and is an annual event to raise awareness of the condition and the impact on sufferers and their families. The event is run by the National Rheumatoid Arthritis Society (NRAS)\, which is a registered charity. \nRA awareness week gives supporters an opportunity to help to raise awareness of the condition in a number of ways\, including doing video recordings of themselves discussing the impact of the disease. Another awareness opportunity is for participants to run information stands in public places and hospitals and putting up posters. NRAS offers participants information packs and helps to promote their events. \nRA is a painful autoimmune disease that affects joints as the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks the lining of the joints\, leading to inflammation and stiffness\, and it isn’t restricted to joints\, it also affects the body’s organs\, for example heart and lungs. The condition is seen in women more than in men\, and affects approximately 1% of the UK population. It is a hidden condition\, meaning that people do not always realise that sufferers are living with the disease. \nThe condition is not the same arthritis that affects older people\, which is known as osteoarthritis\, but can affect people of any age\, and can either have an early onset\, in teenage years\, or start at any time in an adult’s life. There is no known cure\, but advances in medicine mean that treatment can be very effective in reducing pain and symptoms.

SUMMARY:Emergency Number Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:September 11th is the day Emergency Number Day was proclaimed by President Ronald Reagan in 1987. \nThis observance focuses on the United States public safety communication. Three-digit emergency telephone numbers originated in the UK in 1937. The emergency telephone number used in the United States was created by the Federal Communications Commission and AT&T in 1968. \nThe combination 9-1-1 was chosen because it was brief\, easy to remember and dial. The first 9-1-1 call was placed on February 16\, 1968 in Haleyville\, Alabama although it wasn’t to report a crime or request emeergency responder help! Alabama Speaker of the House\, Rankin Fite\, made the first call from another city hall room. It was answered by Congressman Tom Bevill on a bright red telephone located in the police department. Also on hand was Haleyville Mayor James Whitt\, Public Service Commission President Eugene (Bull) Connor\, and B. W. Gallagher. \nIn the same year 9-1-1 officially became the national emergency number for the USA. However\, it became widely known only in the 1970s. \nAll 9-1-1 calls are answered by special call centers known as public-safety answering points (PSAPs). Calling this number provides callers access to police\, ambulance\, and firefighting services through trained dispatchers.9-1-1 Emergency Number Day is observed on September 11. This date was selected because the numbers 9-1-1 correspond to September 11 in the month-day date format. Since 2001\, the importance of the Emergency Number Day has declined due to the 9/11 terrorist attacks and subsequent proclamation of Patriot Day as a national observance.

SUMMARY:National Hot Cross Buns Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:For some reason the National Hot Cross Buns Day is celebrated on September 11. \nIt is strange because hot cross buns are typically baked and served on Good Friday. Hot cross buns are spiced sweet buns made with raisins or currants. They are so named because they are marked with a cross on the top. Hot cross buns are surrounded by many superstitions in English folklore. \nFor example\, buns baked on Good Friday are believed to have healing properties. Sailors used to take hot cross buns on their voyages to protect themselves against shipwreck. People also used to believe that a hot cross bun hung in the kitchen could protect the house against fires. The handing bun needed to be replaced once a year.Hot cross buns are popular in English-speaking countries. Some countries have local variations of these pastry. \nFor example\, in the UK supermarkets offer apple-cinnamon\, orange-cranberry\, and toffee buns. In Australian and New Zealand\, chocolate and coffee-flavored versions of the bun have become popular. \nIf you like buns and don’t want to wait until Easter to enjoy them\, you should definitely celebrate the National Hot Cross Buns Day by baking a batch of buns and treating your family\, friends\, neighbors and coworkers.

SUMMARY:Patriot Day in the USA 2023
DESCRIPTION:Patriot Day is a United States national observance that honors the memory of those who were killed in the September 11 attacks. It was first observed in 2002\, after the proclamation by President George W. Bush. \nOn September 11\, 2001 al-Qaeda launched a series of coordinated terrorist attacks upon the United States\, killing almost 3\,000 people. In the immediate aftermath of the tragic events\, President proclaimed September 14\, 2001 as a National Day of Prayer and Remembrance for the Victims of the Terrorist Attacks on September 11\, 2001. A year later\, September 11 was made a national day of mourning referred to as Patriot Day. This observance has been proclaimed annually since 2002. \nIn 2009\, President Barack Obama rededicated it as Patriot Day and National Day of Service and Remembrance. It is not a public holiday therefore government offices\, educational institutions and businesses do not close on this day. On Patriot Day\, the national flag is flown at half-mast on all United States government buildings and establishments. Individuals are also encouraged to display flags on their homes. \nA moment of silence is traditionally observed at 8:46 AM. Many organizations and establishments hold memorial ceremonies to honor the victims of 9/11.

SUMMARY:World Suicide Prevention Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:World Suicide Prevention Day is observed on September 10 each year to promote worldwide action to prevent suicides. Various events and activities are held during this occasion to raise awareness that suicide is a major preventable cause of premature death. \nWhat do people do? \nWorld Suicide Prevention Day gives organizations\, government agencies and individuals a chance to promote awareness about suicide\, mental illnesses associated with suicide\, as well as suicide prevention. Organizations such as the International Association for Suicide Prevention (IASP) and World Health Organization (WHO) play a key role in promoting this event. \nEvents and activities for World Suicide Prevention Day include: \nThe launch of new government initiatives to prevent suicide. \nConferences\, open days\, educational seminars or public lectures. \nMedia programs promoting suicide awareness and prevention. \nMemorial services or candlelight ceremonies to remember those who died from suicide. \nOrganizing cultural or spiritual events\, fairs or exhibitions. \nLaunches of publications about suicide awareness and prevention. \nTraining courses about suicide and depression awareness. \nMany of these initiatives are celebrated in various countries worldwide. Some of these events and activities are held at a local level\, while others are nation-wide. Many communities around the world reaffirm their commitment to suicide prevention on World Suicide Prevention Day. \nBackground \nNearly 3000 people on average commit suicide daily\, according to WHO. For every person who completes a suicide\, 20 or more may attempt to end their lives. About one million people die by suicide each year. Suicide is a major preventable cause of premature death which is influenced by psycho-social\, cultural and environmental risk factors that can be prevented through worldwide responses that address these main risk factors. There is strong evidence indicating that adequate prevention can reduce suicide rates. \nWorld Suicide Prevention Day\, which first started in 2003\, is annually held on September 10 each year as an IASP initiative. WHO co-sponsors this event. World Suicide Prevention Day aims to: \nRaise awareness that suicide is preventable. \nImprove education about suicide. \nSpread information about suicide awareness. \nDecrease stigmatization regarding suicide. \nWHO and IASP work with governments and other partners to ensure that suicide is no longer stigmatized\, criminalized or penalized. WHO’s role is to build political action and leadership to develop national responses to prevent suicide\, strengthen national planning capacity to establish the core building blocks of such a national response\, and build the national capacities to implement these responses.

SUMMARY:National Eczema Week 2023
DESCRIPTION:In Previous National Eczema Weeks we urged everyone to Take action on eczema’. Many people aren’t managing their eczema as well as they could and we all need a nudge sometimes to make some improvements! Eczema is a highly personal condition and people respond differently to triggers and treatments. Sometimes you need to try a few things before finding a self-management regimen that works best for you. Here are our seven top tips: \n1. Keep your home cool to ease itching around 18C is ideal. \n2. Go fragrance-free. Anything with a strong scent\, from soap to air freshener\, may be irritating to your skin. \n3. Mind the gap! Leave at least 10 minutes or ideally longer between applying an emollient and a topical steroid. This stops the steroid spreading to areas of skin unaffected by eczema or being diluted. It doesn’t matter which is applied first. \n4. Pinch itchy skin rather than scratching it\, to avoid damaging the skin’s barrier. \n5. Use your emollients at least twice a day to prevent dryness\, and at other times whenever your skin feels dry and itchy. \n6. Go back to basics on skincare. Check with a healthcare professional for advice to make sure you’re applying your creams properly and managing your eczema triggers as best you can. \n7. Don’t cut foods out of your diet without medical advice unless you or your child have been diagnosed with a food allergy. If you cut foods without support\, you/they may miss out on important nutrients. \nFor more advice on managing your eczema call the National Eczema Society Helpline on 0800 089 1122 (8am-8pm\, Monday-to-Friday) or email your questions to helpline@eczema.org.

SUMMARY:Heritage Open Days 2023
DESCRIPTION:Established in the early 1994\, the Heritage Open Days is a way of contributing to the European Heritage Days by celebrating the regions culture and much more through the festival. \nRoots \nThe Council of Europe and European Commission set up the Europe Heritage Days in 1991 to raise awareness and appreciation of the rich and diverse Europe’s cultural assets as well as the need for care and protection for posterity. \nThe central principle behind the days was simple and compelling. \nThey would throw open all the doors to historic buildings and monuments especially those that are normally closed to the public. Currently\, they are held in September in almost 50 signatory states to the original European Cultural Convention. \nHeritage Open Days is England’s largest festival of history and culture\, bringing together over 2\,000 organisations\, 5\,000 events and 40\,000 volunteers. Every year in September\, places across the country throw open their doors to celebrate their heritage\, community and history. It’s your chance to see hidden places and try out new experiences and it’s all FREE. \nHeritage Open Days 2023 will be 8-17 September

SUMMARY:National Read A Book Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:September 6th is National Read a Book Day. Here are a few of the reasons you should join in on this holiday and read a book. \nRead a book today BECAUSE \nIt’s the best excuse for peace and quiet. \nYou love sitting in your favourite chair. \nThat stack of borrowed books needs a dent. \nAll your friends are busy. \nYou need a new favourite quotation. \nBooks are on your schedule: you can pick them up and put them down at your own convenience. \nWalking to the library is good exercise. \nYou saw the movie\, but you heard the book is way better. \nYou’ve always wanted to read Anna Karenina. \nYou’ve always wanted to reread Anna Karenina. \nThere’s a swath of history you’re sick of having to admit you know NOTHING about. \nSome sentences are better than kissing (See Nabokov). \nYour perspective can be changed by a single passage (See Vonnegut). \nYour life can be changed by a book (See The Year of Magical Thinking). \nYou’re going through something and you just need to get lost in a beautiful\, made-up world. \nYou haven’t gotten to use your imagination in a really long time. \nToday’s world is so loud\, hyper-connected and busy. \nThe world inside your head is yours and yours alone.

SUMMARY:International Day of Charity 2023
DESCRIPTION:As part of the United Nations 2030 Agenda on Sustainable Development\, adopted in September 2015\, the UN has recognized the importance of eradicating poverty in all forms. Poverty presents an enormous global challenge for the international community\, as is a significant threat to sustainable development. In the spirit of global solidarity\, the 2030 Agenda is focused on how best to meet the needs of the world’s poorest and most vulnerable citizens and acknowledges the role that the private sector must play in supporting the various organizations who have undertaken philanthropic efforts to implement the 2030 Agenda. \nPoverty exists in every country around the globe\, from powerful industrial nations to developing countries. It continues to affect millions of people\, regardless of their social and cultural situations\, and is a barrier to true prosperity and equality. \nIn recognition of the significant role that charities and individuals have undertaken to alleviate human suffering and humanitarian crises\, the UN General Assembly\, under resolution A/RES/67/105PDF\, has designated the 5th of September as the International Day of Charity. This date was chosen as it is the anniversary of the death of Mother Teresa\, and the resolution is\, in part\, a tribute to her work and dedication to charitable causes. \nThis 5th of September\, the United Nations invites all Member States\, international and regional organisations\, non-governmental organisations and individuals alike to commemorate the International Day of Charity by encouraging charitable acts in their respective communities to raise public awareness of this event.

SUMMARY:Air Ambulance Week 2023
DESCRIPTION:What is Air Ambulance Week?\nAir Ambulance Week is the only week in the year dedicated to raising awareness and funds for the vital lifesaving work of air ambulance charities and is organised by Air Ambulances UK\, the national charity supporting the lifesaving work of the UK’s air ambulance charities\, enabling them to save even more lives every day. \nThe event also highlights that anyone\, anywhere in the UK can become a patient at any time. Air ambulance charities collectively make over 30\,000 lifesaving missions each year across the UK. There are 37 air ambulance helicopters in the UK operated by 21 air ambulance charities\, providing pre-hospital care support to the NHS and forming an important part of the UK’s frontline emergency services. \nAir ambulance crews bring the Emergency Department to patients who have suffered a life threatening or life changing trauma or medical emergency; providing specialist critical care to save lives.

Air ambulance charities are collectively dispatched to over 102 lifesaving missions each day across the UK. Each lifesaving mission by air costs on average £3\,962 and are funded almost entirely by donations. That’s why we can’t save lives without you and why Air Ambulances UK is calling on people all over the UK to support their local air ambulance to ensure air ambulance charities continue to save lives every day. \nWhen is Air Ambulance Week 2023?\nAir Ambulance Week 2023 takes off across the UK from 4 – 10th September\, with air ambulance charities across the UK delivering the message that Air Ambulance charities can’t save lives without you!

SUMMARY:National Payroll Week 2023
DESCRIPTION:Taking place on the 5-9 September\, National Payroll Week was established to raise the profile and awareness of payroll in the UK. It helps demonstrate the impact payroll has on the UK economy through contributing towards the £4.46bn* collected through income tax and National Insurance. \nIt aims to provide payroll professionals with a celebration week to highlight that they do more than just push a button and can benefit organisations through strategic decision making related to overall reward and remuneration. \nPayroll is the largest expenditure in most UK organisations and therefore should be managed by qualified professionals.

SUMMARY:International Vulture Awareness Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:The first Saturday in September each year is International Vulture Awareness Day. \nVultures are an ecologically vital group of birds that face a range of threats in many areas that they occur. Populations of many species are under pressure and some species are facing extinction. \nThe International Vulture Awareness Day has grown from Vulture Awareness Days run by the Birds of Prey Programme of the Endangered Wildlife Trust in South Africa and the Hawk Conservancy Trust in England\, who decided to work together and expand the initiative into an international event. \nIt is now recognised that a co-ordinated international day will publicise the conservation of vultures to a wider audience and highlight the important work being carried out by the world’s vulture conservationists. \nOn the first Saturday in September\, the aim is for each participating organisation to carry out their own activities that highlight vulture conservation and awareness. This website provides a central place for all participants to outline these activities and see the extent of vulture conservation across the world. Additionally\, it is a valuable resource for vulture workers to learn about the activities of their colleagues and to perhaps develop new collaborations or exchange information.

SUMMARY:Organic September 2023
DESCRIPTION:Organic September is a month-long campaign which aims to raise awareness of Organic products\, and the brands\, producers and farmers who bring them to us in the UK. \nFoods labelled as organic must meet strict regulations on how they have been grown and produced. All organic food companies and farms are inspected yearly to ensure that they meet the high standards required for organic food under European law. \nWhen you buy organic you can be sure that the products you are buying: \nContain no artificial additives or preservatives. \nContain fewer pesticides. There are only 20 pesticides that can be used by organic farmers all of which are derived from natural ingredients. This is compared to almost 300 pesticides used in regular farming. \nConform to high standards of animal welfare. \nContain no genetically modified ingredients. \nHave been produced in a way that is sustainable. \nIt’s easy to get involved\, just look for the organic logo or why not think about growing your own! The Soil Association says that by switching just one item in your shop to organic will help contribute to changing our food system\, buying more organic food means more organic farms so fewer pesticides which is better for our wildlife and means more farm animals raised under higher welfare standards.

SUMMARY:Vascular Disease Awareness Month 2023
DESCRIPTION:Our supporters include healthcare professionals\, individuals with vascular disease\, and their families and friends\, and this year we would like to encourage you all to Step It Up for September. \nThe understanding of vascular disease and its effect on our lives\, by the general public\, is often poor\, and the Circulation Foundation strives to highlight and promote awareness for vascular disease to the general public\, so that everyone understands how important our work is. \nVascular disease is the collective term for diseases of the arteries\, veins and lymphatics. Every part of the body to which blood flows can be affected by it. It’s as common as cancer and heart disease and accounts for 40% of deaths in the UK\, many of which are preventable. \nArterial diseases include: Peripheral vascular disease\, Aneurysmal disease\, Carotid disease and Stroke\, Leg ulcers \nVenous diseases include: Varicose veins\, Leg ulcers\, Deep vein thrombosis. Lymphatic disease include: Lymphoedema. \nStep It Up for fundraising \nLike any charity\, the Circulation Foundation is wholly dependent on money from fund raising. The money we raise goes towards funding and promoting research into the causes\, treatment and prevention of vascular disease in the UK. We also provide essential information to patients and their families\, whilst raising awareness of vascular disease and the importance of healthy veins and arteries\, to ensure we can lead longer\, healthier lives. Why not make fundraising part of your event or activity to help us continue our work. \nStep It Up for stopping smoking \nSmoking is the worst enemy of vascular disease. It is very rare for healthcare professionals to find someone with arterial vascular disease who has not smoked in their past. It increases the risk of heart attacks\, strokes and lower limb amputation. Could you start the process to stopping smoking? \nFind out more information on how to quit successfully from your GP or local pharmacist. Find a local smoking cessation group. Look at the different nicotine replacements\, and decide what you are going to use once you decide to quit. Once prepared you are ready to go\, and Step It Up for September. \nStep It Up for healthy eating \nEating a healthy diet is good for us all; however it can also reduce your chances of developing vascular disease. A good balanced diet not only keeps your weight under control\, it helps reduce your cholesterol levels\, helps keep your blood pressure under control and also reduces your risk of getting diabetes. \nA high cholesterol\, high blood pressure and diabetes are all risk factors for vascular disease. Share information about a healthy diet with your friends and family. Why not take this opportunity to start a new healthier diet and a new healthier lifestyle yourself. Document your new recipes\, take photographs of your food\, and track your weight loss. \nFor more information please visit: \nhttps://www.circulationfoundation.org.uk/help-advice/vascular-health/a-healthy-diet \nStep It Up for regular exercise \nExercise keeps us all fit and healthy\, and for patients with vascular disease it can be particularly important. Patients with peripheral vascular disease can improve their symptoms and ability to mobilise by undertaking a specific exercise programme. Patients who require an operation\, both major and minor\, can improve their recovery by being fitter and healthier beforehand. Could this be the right time for you to increase your level of exercise? Start with simple goals\, and slowly build up your own exercise regime. \nCombine your new regular exercise with fundraising during September\, and organise a sponsored walk or a sponsored 5K run.

The event has been running since 2012\, and September 21st is World Alzheimer’s Day. \nGlobally there is thought to be poor understanding and a great deal of stigma surrounding dementia\, so the work of World Alzheimer’s Month is vital and is growing and targeting the stigma and lack of understanding and knowledge surrounding Alzheimer’s disease and dementia as well as supporting those suffering with the disease. \nThe month is an opportunity for individuals\, businesses and charities to hold events and raise awareness in their communities of the effects of dementia. Participants can get campaign materials for their event from ADI\, and anyone unable to arrange their own event but keen to take part\, can find events run by their National Alzheimer’s Charity and participate in those. \nWorld Alzheimer’s Month is an opportunity for sufferers\, carers\, professionals\, press and media and communities to work together against dementia as well as raising awareness of the realities of it\, while combating stigma and misinformation and lobbying the government for better help and care. \nDementia is a degenerative brain condition that affects over 50 million people internationally and which robs a person of their memory\,competency\, comprehension and behavioural awareness\, usually slowly\, over years\, it is a sad condition to live with or to witness in a loved one\, there are over 100 forms of dementia\, the most common being Alzheimer’s Disease at 50-60% of all dementia cases.

SUMMARY:Urology Awareness Month 2023
DESCRIPTION:Launched in 2014\, Urology Awareness Month takes place every September to raise the profile of urology health. Throughout the month\, teams of experts and patients aim to increase public awareness of all urological cancers\, diseases and conditions that affect the kidney\, bladder\, prostate and male reproductive organs. As well as highlighting the symptoms associated with such diseases the month looks to also talk about the impact they have on all aspects of a persons life. \nWe set up Urology Awareness Month because there is a lot of stigma surrounding urology health. From testicular cancer to UTIs\, male infertility to incontinence\, urology health is often a hard subject for people to open up about. \nOur goal with Urology Awareness Month is to break down the stigma around urology health. We know that catching a urology disease early is crucial in order to get the right treatment quicker. So\, the more openly we can talk about urology health\, the better. \nSo\, join us each September as we scream and shout about urology health. No one should feel they have to deal with these diseases in silence. \nFind out more here .

SUMMARY:Childhood Cancer Awareness Month / A Month of Movement 2023
DESCRIPTION:What is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month / A Month Of Movement 2023?\nSeptember is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month\, and is symbolised by a gold ribbon\, worn to commemorate the event. This is an annual international awareness month to raise support\, funding and awareness of childhood cancers and the impact for sufferers and families of sufferers of childhood cancer. It was founded in 2010 by former US President Barack Obama and is mainly run in the form of awareness events by cancer charities. \nA Month of Movement is a September initiative that aims to encourage you to move more for the month of September and raise vital funds for research into children’s cancers as you go. \nChildhood cancer is devastating to growth and development in children\, and devastating to their families and friends. At a time when young people should be focusing on school\, play and socialising\, if they have cancer\, their focus can be on medication\, operations\, and what life they have left. \nParents of childhood cancer sufferers have the anguish of watching their children suffer\, and the stress of decisions on medications and treatments as well as decisions on time of work for themselves and time off school for the child\, and worst\, trying to explain to a child what is happening to them and answering the resulting questions on life and faith\, and worst of all is the loss of a child to cancer\, a devastation that can never be put right. \nSome forms of cancer are mainly or exclusively only seen in children\, and that is something highlighted by the awareness month. Children can be more resilient to cancer and cancer treatments than adults\, and there are many cases of triumph and complete recovery\, where children make a complete recovery and grow up to normal life. But awareness\, education and support are vital\, which is why Childhood Cancer Awareness Month is also vital. \nWhen is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month / A Month of Movement 2023?\nA Month of Movement takes place each September from the 1st until the 30th. \nHow to get involved in A Month of Movement.\nYoung Lives Vs Cancer are one of the charities asking you to move an extra 30 minutes each day for 30 days in the hope of raising awareness and funds and encouraging healthy habits as an added bonus.

SUMMARY:National Bow Tie Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:August the 28th is National Bow Tie Day! If you’re a fan of a neck tie why not jazz things up a bit and wear a bow tie to celebrate this occasion! \nThe first bow ties allegedly appeared in the early 17th Century in France\, when French soldiers brought cravats to their homeland at the end of the Thirty Years War. The garments are based upon the Croation Soldiers neck tie\, which was designed to keep the collars of the shirts together. \nThe bow ties became an instant hit in 1886\, when a tobacco magnate Pierre Lorillard wore one with his new style of formal wear to the Tuxedo Club. His black-and-white outlook became very popular among fashion enthusiasts. Since then bow ties have remained a firm favourite and timeless piece in the world of fashion. \nGrab your favorite type of a bow tie (self-tie\, pre-tied or a clip-on) and wear it to celebrate National Bow Tie Day.

SUMMARY:National Petroleum Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:At the end of the summer on August 27th\, Americans celebrate National Petroleum Day. \nThe day is celebrated by many working in the oil and gas industries\, and used as a platform to gather and discuss the may issues that face the industry. Crude oil and other liquids produced from fossil fuels are refined into petroleum products that people use for many different purposes. Biofuels\, such as ethanol and biodiesel\, are also used as petroleum products\, mainly in mixtures with gasoline and diesel fuel \nPetroleum was discovered by Edwin L. Drake on August 27\, 1858 in Titusville\, Pennsylvania. He struck oil 70 feet beneath the surface in Titusville\, thus launching the modern-day petroleum industry in the USA. This event is very important for the history of Titusville\, because since the discovery of crude oil the region became prosperous. \nAlthough used for many different types of product in many different industries\, we need to consider the fact the world will eventually run out of petrol reserves and we therefore need to find kinder alternatives and substitutes. A highly contentious issue\, this is a subject that we should not ignore and continue to learn more about. \nYou could get involved in the day by considering what products you use in your lives that use petroleum and attempting to find kinder alternatives. You could also research more about the effect on the world our petroleum consumption has\, and what is being done in your areas to minimise and risks.

SUMMARY:National Dog Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:National Dog Day is an annual event celebrated on August 26. \nNational Dog Day was established in 2004 by animal advocate & pet and family lifestyle expert Coleen Paige.

Whether your pet has become your new working from home buddy\, or they’ve just been there keeping your spirits up…this precious time has given us the opportunity to witness all their cute quirks and funny personalities more than ever! \nWith this in mind\, to celebrate National Dog Day\, Safestyle previously launched a nationwide #DoginWindow photo competition to tie in with this special day.

SUMMARY:National Take Your Cat to the Vet Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:As humans \, we tend to take our health pretty seriously. But when was the last time you took your cat for a general check up? If the answer is ‘you can’t remember’ then use today as a gentle reminder to get your feline friend booked in for a health check. National Take Your Cat To The Vet Day on August 22nd is the day used to remind cat owners to pay a visit to the Vets. \nAmerican Veterinary Medical Association have over the years established numerous pet health awareness events\, that encourage pet owners to visit the vet. While you may think that your pet cat is at pretty low risk of picking up illnesses\, they can often become infected with dangerous diseases from stray cats\, found roaming the streets. \nWhile keeping your pussy inside is likely to protect your him or her from danger\, you can bring a virus or helminth eggs on your shoes. There are also many common illnesses that cats can develop and that can go unnoticed for a period of time. We know how well loved and cared for your pets are\, but nevertheless\, don’t waste time and take your cat to the vet to find out\, if your pet is in a good health condition. And then give them a special treat for the upheaval!

SUMMARY:World Humanitarian Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:On the 19th August each year we celebrate World Humanitarian Day.

SUMMARY:National Aviation Day in the USA 2023
DESCRIPTION:On August 19\, National Aviation Day is celebrated across the United States. It is an annual national observance that honors the development of aviation. \nThe holiday was first observed in 1939\, after the proclamation by U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt. August 19 was chosen on purpose because it is the anniversary of Orville Wright’s birthday. Orville was the younger of the Wright brothers\, renowned American aviation pioneers. He was still alive when President first issued the proclamation. \nAlthough National Aviation Day is a federal observance\, it does not have the status of a public holiday. This means that government offices\, educational institutions and businesses stay open on this day. However\, the flag of the United States is required to be displayed on all governmental buildings on the day. \nIndividuals are also encouraged to display national flags on their homes. Some schools organize classroom activities and trips to aviation museums that focus on the history of aviation\, aviation pioneers and achievements of modern aviation.National Aviation Day should not be confused with Pan American Aviation Day\, which is celebrated on December 17 and coincides with Wright Brothers Day.

SUMMARY:National Airborne Day in the USA 2023
DESCRIPTION:National Airborne Day is a special day designated to honor the U.S. Airborne Forces and the first parachute jump of 48 volunteer members of the U.S. Army Parachute Test Platoon on August 16\, 1940. This day is annually observed on August 16. \nThe use of parachutes was an innovative method of warfare during World War II. This gave the Allied an opportunity to deploy the troops behind enemy lines.

These and other other soldiers formed the legendary 11th\, 13th\, 17th\, 82nd and 101st Airborne Divisions\, that participated in many fights during World War II and other military conflicts after its end.Regarding the importance of the first successful parachute jump\, President of the USA George W.

SUMMARY:The Thoughtful Traveller Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:What is The Thoughtful Traveller Day?\nIn 2021\, the tourism industry lost 1.78 trillion Euros due to the pandemic. All over the world\, many jobs were lost and businesses closed forever. All in all\, the effect was felt globally\, but countries with economies that depend on tourism were impacted the most. \nNow that the tourism industry has opened back up\, these countries and their local businesses need your support more than ever. One small way you can do that is to leave a review. \nOver a third of tourists from the UK need to read between four and 10 positive reviews before they are willing to visit a small business abroad\, and two in five UK adults would not commit to visiting a foreign restaurant or tourist attraction without reading an online review. \nWhen is The Thoughtful Traveller Day 2023?\nThe Thoughtful Traveller Day 2023 will be taking place on the 12th August 2023. \nHow to get involved in The Thoughtful Traveller Day.\nLeaving a review for a small business while abroad can mean the difference between them winning or losing a customer – so today\, on The Thoughtful Traveller Day\, we urge you to think back to the businesses you loved while you were on holiday but haven’t yet reviewed. Whether it was a café\, a back street restaurant or a market stall\, if you can find them on any review site then please leave a positive review and inspire other travellers to shop\, eat or visit there. \nDon’t forget to show your support for this awareness day by using the hashtag #TheThoughtfulTraveller in your review!

These powers\, known as Community Rights\, give recognition to valuable community assets such as allotments\, pubs\, local shops and community centres and can help ensure that these assets continue to be of benefit to local people. \nYou are able to list your allotment as an Asset of Community Value and this is where the Community Right to Bid comes in. It can help to protect vital community assets such as allotments in your neighbourhood. Allotments add to the wellbeing of local communities and you and your neighbours can therefore nominate your allotment to be put on a list of Assets of Community Value by your Local Authority. If an Asset of Community Value is then put up for sale\, local community groups can pause‚the sale for six months while they raise the funds to bid to buy it. \nNearly 100 allotments have been listed by local community groups across the country. Are you one of them? If so you can now apply for an ACV Certificate to celebrate your allotment. \nEmail community.assets@communities.gsi.gov.uk for more details about getting a personalised certificate for you to print out and display to let everyone know how much your allotment is valued by your local community. For more information about assets of community value and how to protect them please visithttp://mycommunity.org.uk/programme/community-asset-ownership/ \nThe Department for Communities and Local Government has also produced a simple guide to community rights called You’ve got the power?’ \nYou can also have your say in the way your neighbourhood develops in the future. Neighbourhood planning enables local communities to shape the places where you live and work. Over 1400 communities have started neighbourhood planning in their area and around a third of the neighbourhood plans which are now in force include policies on allotments. If you’re interested to find out how you can get started\, there’s lots of information here: http://mycommunity.org.uk/programme/neighbourhood-planning/ \nIf you’re involved in your local area\, you can also join the My Community Network to chat to experts and connect with others who are also passionate about their community. Through the Network\, you get: \nAccess to live discussions and expert advice on the forum \nInspiration and tips from other people from across the country \nQuick responses to questions about community activity and programmes \nNetworking with like-minded and experienced people \nCoaching and mentoring from experts in the field \nInvitations to free learning hubs and event

SUMMARY:National Mustard Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:The first Saturday in August sees us celebrate National Mustard Day. Mustard is a condiment made from the seeds of a mustard plant. The whole\, bruised\, cracked\, or ground seeds are mixed with liquid (water\, lemon juice\, vinegar\, oil)\, salt and sometimes spices to create a sauce or paste. \nSome interesting facts about mustard! \nMustard was first recorded as being prepared by wealthy Romans\, who mixed wine and mustard seeds and added it to their meals. \nAmerica is the country that uses the most mustard in the world\, with yellow mustard (a mild\, American-style condiment\, often used on hot dogs) being the most commonly used. Because of this\, the rest of the world refers to it as American mustard. \nMustard is healthy: its seeds are full of nutrients and antioxidants. They contain selenium\, omega-3 and 6\, potassium\, magnesium and calcium\, which have anti-inflammatory properties and are also supposed to speed up the metabolism and lower blood pressure. \nBefore people began eating mustard\, it was used for medicinal purposes. French monks were known to use mustard to treat their wounds while Greeks used it to relieve muscles\, cure toothaches and stimulate appetite and digestion. A mustard bath is a traditional therapeutic remedy for tired\, stressed muscles\, colds\, fevers and seizures. The mustard was thought to draw out toxins and warm the muscles\, blood and body. It was a standard medical practice up until the first part of the twentieth century and continues to be used in alternative medicine. \nDid you know there is a National Mustard Museum? Opening in 1986 by founder and mustard collector Barry Levenson. The museum opened to the public in 1992 in Mount Hroeb and consists of 5600 prepared mustards from over 70 countries. The museum became the sponsor of National Mustard Day in 1991 which sees events taking place raising thousands of dollars for a local charity. \nWhat better reason to hold a National Mustard Day event? Why not make some hotdogs\, smother them in your favourite mustard and ask people to contribute to your local charity?

SUMMARY:National Oyster Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:August 5 is the perfect holiday for all you seafood lovers out there as it is National Oyster Day. \nThis holiday celebrates a considerable number of different species of edible bivalve molluscs which are considered a delicacy. Oysters have been consumed by humans for centuries. They used to be an important food source in coastal areas. \nPollution and overfishing have considerably reduced oyster supplies\, but oysters still remain a popular delicacy. Traditionally\, they are considered to be an aphrodisiac. Oysters are rich in zinc\, calcium\, iron\, selenium\, vitamin A\, and vitamin B12\, but are low in food energy. \nOysters must be either consumed alive or cooked alive. When dead\, they cannot be eaten safely. A live oyster must be capable of closing its shell. Oysters are considered most nutritious when eaten raw. Raw oysters are usually served with a piece of lemon\, vinegar\, or cocktail sauce. Butter and salt are sometimes added. Oysters can also be boiled\, fried\, smoked\, baked\, pickled\, roasted\, broiled\, steamed\, or canned. \nTo celebrate National Oyster Day\, go out to your local seafood restaurant and indulge yourself with either raw or cooked oysters. If you have never tried oysters before\, this food day is the perfect occasion to do it!

SUMMARY:Coast Guard Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:Celebrated annually on August 4th\, Coast Guard Day commemorates the anniversary of the founding of the U.S. Coast Guard as the Revenue-Marine in 1790. On August 4\, 1790 Secretary of the Treasury Alexander Hamilton established the Revenue-Marine to serve as an armed customs enforcement service. In 1894\, it was renamed the Revenue Cutter Service. In 1915\, it merged with the U.S. Life-Saving Service. Thus the United States Coast Guard was formed. \nFor those who dont know\, the Coast Guard is an all important maritime first responder; “the principal Federal agency responsible for maritime safety\, security\, and environmental stewardship in U.S. ports and waterways”. \nThe Coast Guards are one of the five Armed Services of the United States\, and the only military branch within the Department of Homeland Security. In addition to its role as an Armed Service\, the Coast Guard is a first responder and humanitarian service that provides aid to people in distress or impacted by natural and man-made disasters whether at sea or ashore. The Coast Guard is a member of the Intelligence Community\, and is a law enforcement and regulatory agency with broad legal authorities associated with maritime transportation\, hazardous materials shipping\, bridge administration\, oil spill response\, pilotage\, and vessel construction and operation. \nCoast Guard Day is mainly an internal event\, however we feel that such is the importance of the work that is carried out byt he Coast Guard\, more should be done to thank\, honor and celebrate them. It is celebrated primarily by Coast Guardsmen\, both active duty and reserve\, as well as retirees\, civilian employees\, dependants\, and auxiliarists. Coast Guard units across the country organize picnics and sport competitions. So why not show your appreciation for those people involved and the service they provide and support any local events that may take place\, or simply educate others about the work they do?

SUMMARY:National Immunization Awareness Month 2023
DESCRIPTION:National Immunization Awareness Month is sponsored by the National Public Health Information Coalition (NPHIC) and is observed in August annually across the USA. \nThe campaign aims to raise awareness of the importance of vaccinating people of all ages against a number of serious and sometimes deadly diseases. The awareness month also celebrates the successes of the different immunizations that have been created in the 20th century and beyond. \nEvery year\, the National Public Health Information Coalition (NPHIC)\, in collaboration with CDC’s National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases\, has develops a communication toolkit for use in your communities\, schools and work places and encourages people to become involved\, raise awareness and most important of all\, get immunised. There are 4 key messages of the toolkits that produced annually\, these being: \nVaccines protect against serious diseases. \nThese diseases still exist and outbreaks do occur. \nVaccines are recommended throughout our lives. \nVaccines are very safe. \nThere are many debates around the safety of many of the vaccinations available\, however governments across the world\, acting upon the advice of leading scientists and medical professionals overwhelmingly support immunization schemes. Despite this\, the growing voice of the anti immunization supporters ( and some other factors) has lead to a decrease in the number of people becoming vaccinated and there is little surprise that the number of people affected by diseases that in some cases had been eliminated from some countries is on the rise again. \nFor more information about available immunizations visit one of the official websites.

SUMMARY:World Breastfeeding Week 2023
DESCRIPTION:Set every August for the first seven days of the month\, World Breastfeeding Week aims to highlight the huge benefits that breastfeeding can bring to both the health and welfare of babies\, as well as a wider push for maternal health\, focusing on good nutrition\, poverty reduction and food security. \nThe event is organised every year by the World Alliance for Breastfeeding Action (WABA)\, a global network that aims to protect\, promote and support breastfeeding around the world. Along the way\, it works with the World Health Organization and Unicef to get its aid to the right people in the right communities. \nWorld Breastfeeding Week begins each year on the 1st August and runs right through until the 7th. \nOf course there are many different demands on busy mother’s\, meaning that women who may want to breastfeed their babies haven’t always got the support to continue this. Busy working schedules\, alongside the many other challenges that modern women face can mean that women don’t always feel that breastfeeding their child is something that is an accessible option to them. \nBreastfeeding weeks aim to raise awareness of the health and wellbeing outcomes of breastfeeding and the importance of supporting mothers to breastfeed for as long as they wish.

SUMMARY:Yorkshire Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:Named after the biggest county in England (if you unite North\, South\, West and East Riding of Yorkshire\, which is sort of cheating)\, it’s no surprise that Yorkshire Day is a thing. As an area on the up and up\, it’s becoming one of the most important places in the UK\, as the likes of Leeds\, Hull\, Bradford have become prominent as centres of finance\, culture and much more. \nSo\, whether you’re from Yorkshire or not\, celebrate like one of the locals on August 1st by donning your flat cap\, walking the damp countryside with your whippet\, eating a Yorkshire pudding with gravy\, then settling down to complain about the rising price of a pint of best bitter\, ending the night on a cheerier note by remembering the good old days.

SUMMARY:Flag Day in Hawaii 2023
DESCRIPTION:Did you know that every year on July 31\, the state of Hawaii celebrates Hawaii Flag Day\, otherwise known as Ka Hae Hawaii? \nHawaii flag day was first established in 1990 by Governor of Hawaii John D. Waihee III on July 31 and is celebrated annually. \nEstablished as a day to honor the flag\, its history and meaning\, the day was supported by park staff at Pukohola Heiau National Historic Site on the Big Island. One of only 3 sites in Hawaii permitted to fly the flag independently of any other national flag\, the park has significant historical importance. \nThe Flag of Hawaii was designed in 1816 during the reign of King Kamehameha I and finally adopted in 1845. The flag consists of white red and blue stripes\, that attribute to various historical flags of the United Kingdom\, whilst at the same time stripes reminding us of the American flag. A smaller depiction of the flag of the United Kingdom in the left upper corner reminds us about the tight relations of Hawaii with the UK. \nThe Hawaiian flag was changed several times until its final adoption. Originally there were either seven or nine horizontal stripes\, but eight stripes were adopted in 1845 to represent all eight major islands of the state. \nFor Hawaiians\, the flag is a distinguished symbol of the time when alii in the Hawaiian Kingdom could govern with absolute sovereignty. During the overthrow of the monarchy\, Hawaiians incorporated the flag into quilts and wall hangings to pledge their allegiance to a sovereign nation.

SUMMARY:World Day against Trafficking in Persons 2023
DESCRIPTION:World Day against Trafficking in Persons is held on July 30th each year\, and is an annual event. People trafficking and modern day slavery is a massive worldwide problem with very few countries immune to human trafficking\, and the event by the United Nations is to raise awareness and increase prevention of that. \nThousands of men\, women and children end up in the hands of traffickers every year\, often through being tricked and mislead to believe that they are being taken to work that will make their family better off\, or through force\, kidnap\, or even through very poor families selling children in order to survive. There are many ways that people get caught up in trafficking\, but the result is the same\, they lose their rights and identity and are used and abused\, and it is a global problem\, an industry not far behind drugs and arms in terms of profit for traffickers. \nTrafficked people are forced to work\, often doing hard labour or prostitution\, for no reward\, and usually have their identity and documents removed from them and are warned of terrible punishments if they escape\, and often they are taken to unfamiliar countries where they don’t know the language and have no way of getting help\, some die and are never heard of again by their families and communities. \nA global problem like trafficking needs a global solution\, which is why the United Nations organise the World Day against Trafficking in Persons\, to raise awareness encourage vigilance and gain support for prevention of human trafficking\, and also why they have produced a protocol to punish human trafficking and are hoping to implement this globally\, as well as an act to protect victims of trafficking.

SUMMARY:National Cheesecake Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:You have probably realised by now that we LOVE a food observance and today is no exception! National Cheesecake Day is celebrated across the United States on July 30. \nIt is the perfect occasion to have a slice of one of America’s favorite desserts which comes in many different varieties. Cheesecake is a dessert consisting of pie crust and cheese filling (although sometimes it is made without crust). Despite its name\, cheesecake isn’t actually a cake; it may or may not be baked. The base can be made from pastry\, sponge cake\, graham crackers\, or crushed cookies. The cheese filling typically consists of soft cheese (usually cream cheese)\, sugar\, and eggs. \nCheesecake is often flavored. It comes in many flavors such as strawberry\, key like\, pumpkin\, chestnut\, toffee etc. Cheesecakes are sometimes topped with whipped cream\, fresh or canned fruit\, chocolate syrup\, fruit sauce\, nuts. \nThere are several major cheesecake varieties in North America. For instance\, New York style cheesecake is a rich and creamy dessert that contains sour cream or heavy cream. Philadelphia style cheesecake is richer in flavor and lighter in texture. Other cheesecake types include Pennsylvania Dutch style cheesecake\, farmer cheese cheesecake\, country style cheesecake\, and Chicago style cheesecake. \nAlthough the origins of the day are sketchy\, historians say that cheesecake can be traced back to the ancient Greeks. Its thought that the ancient Greek cheesecake was somewhat different to the type we consume today\, but the modern day cheesecake can actually be attributed to the English. \nTo celebrate National Cheesecake Day\, indulge yourself with this delightful dessert. You can make a cheesecake yourself\, or pick it at a local bakery if you don’t feel like baking. Going out to your favorite cheesecake place with your family or friends is also a great way to celebrate.

SUMMARY:World Friendship Day / International Day Of Friendship 2023
DESCRIPTION:World Friendship Day\, also known as International Day of Friendship takes place on 30th July. \nThe original idea for a day of friendship came from Hallmark cards in the 1930’s. Originally celebrated on 2nd August\, the day was largely viewed cynically by the public as a money making exercise\, sales of friendship day cards did not take off in Europe and by the mid-1940’s the day had faded into obscurity in the USA. The idea of a day to honour friendship was\, however\, adopted by a number of countries in Asia where it remained a popular custom to reserve a day for celebrating friendships and the exchange of gifts between friends. \nThe first World Friendship Day was proposed for 30 July 1958 by the World Friendship Crusade\, an international civil organisation that campaigns to foster a culture of peace through friendship. Many years later\, in 2011\, the 30th July was declared as the International Day of Friendship by the General Assembly of United Nations. \nWith the growing popularity of social media throughout the world\, there has been an increase in celebrating World Friendship day and International Day of Friendship online as well as with community activities in local communities aimed at bringing those of different backgrounds together.

SUMMARY:National Milk Chocolate Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:What a time to be alive! Today is National Chocolate Day! Celebrated on July 28th in the USA\, National Chocolate Day is one of many informal food observances that take place. \nWhat may seem to us like a form of instant gratification\, behind every chocolate treat is a story involving many participants from across the globe\, state of the art manufacturing and attention to detail. \nMilk chocolate is the most popular type of chocolate across the globe\, being used in the vast majority of candy bars. Although specialist chocolates have become more popular in recent years\, milk chocolate continues to be the biggest seller across the USA. \nPure chocolate liquor can have a bitter taste therefore sugar and sometimes milk are added. Milk chocolate is made with chocolate liquor mixed with fat (typically cocoa butter)\, sugar\, and milk in the form of liquid milk\, milk powder\, or condensed milk. Our favourite treat was invented by German company Jordan & Timaeus in 1839 although originally was only available as a beverage. \nIn 1870s\, Swiss confectioner Daniel Peter created solid milk chocolate which was made with condensed milk. Milk chocolate is one of the sweetest types of chocolate. The minimum amount of cocoa solids contained in milk chocolate varies by country depending on the local regulations. In the USA the minimum amount of cocoa solids is 10% however in Europe this increases to 25%. Who knew milk chocolate could differ so much! The concentration of milk solids varies\, too\, from 12% in the United States and Canada to 14% in the European Union. \nSo go ahead\, make yourself a cup of milk chocolate\, stock up on your favourite milk chocolate treats and try not to make yourself feel ill! Just in case you need to justify the calorific intake\, just remember chocolate causes the brain to release endorphins. There’s no wonder a bit of chocolate makes us feel sooooo good and just in case you’re wondering where to begin with the chocolatey celebrations\, i’ll just leave this little gem of an easy chocolate mousse recipe right here………. you’re very welcome! \n \n\n\nEasy Milk Chocolate Mousses

SUMMARY:National Tequila Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:July 24th is National Tequila Day. On this day you can celebrate your love of this famous Mexican spirit by enjoying a tequila with friends and posting it on social media with the hashtag #nationaltequiladay. \nProduced in the area around the town of Tequila in the Jalisco area of Mexico\, tequila is the national drink of Mexico and is made from the blue agave plant. Originally known as mezcal wine\, there are a number of different categories of tequila including: \nBlanco tequila a white unaged Tequila. \nJoven tequila an unaged golden tequila flavoured with either sugar syrup or caramel. \nReposado tequila aged between 2 months to 1 year in oak barrels. \nAnejo tequila aged between 1 3 years in oak barrels. \nExtra Anejo tequila aged for a minimum of three years. \nNational Tequila Day first started in the USA and Mexico and is celebrated with a number of tequila festivals and tours of tequila distilleries along what is known as the tequila trail in Jalisco. In recent years the celebration has also been adopted in the UK due to the rising popularity of the drink. On national Tequila day in the UK\, although celebrations are smaller than in the USA\, you will find tequila on offer in many bars and supermarkets. \nResponsible for some of our best loved cocktails\, The Tequila Sunrise\, The Margherita\, The Long Island Iced Tea to name a few\, July 24th has been set aside each year to celebrate Tequila. If you’re still recovering from a few too many Tequila slammers at the weekend to raise a glass to it this year\, we’ve put together a few little facts to help pay homage to the stuff without the hangover! \nTequila is made of at least 51% Blue Agave \nAlthough Mezcal can be made from the 100s of different Agave varieties. Tequila must contain at least 51% of Blue Agave and many believe it should be 100%. Tequila consisting of less than 100% Blue Agave are called Mixto. \nMuch of the work in making Tequila is done by hand \nAgave is hand selected for harvest and harvested by hand. In premium Tequilas\, the pulp is extracted from the fiber in large stone bowls by humans after being ground down in the tahona. \nIt takes 8-12 years for the Blue Agave plant to mature enough to make Tequila \nTequila is made from the heart of the Blue Agave plant\, called pi√±a. The pinamay weigh up to 200 pounds when harvested. \nCUERVO WAS THE FIRST PRODUCER OF TEQUILA IN THE WORLD.Jose Antonio de Cuervo y Valdes obtained land from the King of Spain in 1758 and began producing tequila all before Mexico became an independent republic. In 1795\, his son\, Jose Mar√≠a Guadalupe de Cuervo\, began selling the very first Vino Mezcal de Tequila de Jose Cuervo after receiving the first official charter from the King of Spain to produce tequila commercially. \nREAL TEQUILA CAN ONLY BE PRODUCED IN FIVE SPECIFIC REGIONS IN MEXICO. \nTequila received a Designation of Origin (appellation de controlee) in 1974. It’s the same as an appellation for Bordeaux\, Bourbon or Cognac. The Mexican federal government has established strict requirements governing tequila production. \nTHE PI√ëA IS THE HEART OF THE BLUE AGAVE. \nThe pi√±a (Spanish word for pineapple) is the fruit or\, heart\, of the agave from which sugars are extracted and tequila is made. The word pi√±a is used because once harvested\, the heart of the plant resembles a pineapple. \nREPOSADO MEANS RESTED. \nTequila must be rested in wood barrels for a minimum of two months. This is a requirement of the Mexican government. The resting mellows and refines the tequila\, producing a combination of superb smoothness and great taste. \nYou can thank Bing Crosby for your tequila: \nBack in the early 50s\, Bing Crosby became so infatuated with the Herradura brand of tequila that he teamed up fellow actor Phil Harris to import the brand into the United States. Their efforts made Herradura the first-ever 100% blue agave liquor available in the US. \nTequila has health benefits: \nStudies have shown that a component in tequila helps break down dietary fat\, which can lower the levels of bad cholesterol. A shot taken after dinner can aid your body’s digestion. \nPeople will pay a lot for good tequila: \nAccording to The Guinness Book of World Records\, the most expensive bottle of tequila ever sold went to a private collector for $225\,000. The bottle was made out of white gold and platinum\, and contained six year-aged tequila worth $2\,500.

SUMMARY:Parents' Day in the USA 2023
DESCRIPTION:The fourth Sunday in July is Parents’ Day in the USA. \nThis holiday is a combination of Father’s Day and Mother’s Day. And what a celebration this should be! The holiday was established in 1994 by President Bill Clinton as the day that recognizes\, uplifts and supports the role of parents in the rearing of children. ay. \nThis observance is more consistent\, because it minimizes traditional sex-based differences in parental roles. But as far as Mother’s Day and Father’s Day are very popular in the USA\, its unlikely Parents’ Day will replace them any time soon. \nSo if you are parents then give yourself a break today and treat yourself. Or if you have or know some hardworking\, lovely parents – remind them how special they are today!

SUMMARY:Ask an Archaeologist Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:The 2023 #AskAnArchaeologist Day will be on Friday 22 July 2023 – get your questions ready! \n#AskAnArchaeologist Day on Twitter is an official part of the CBA Festival of Archaeology and is a chance for people from all over the world to ask archaeologists questions\, and an opportunity for archaeologists to share their knowledge. \nAnyone with access to Twitter can ask a question using the #AskAnArchaeologist hashtag and any archaeologist who has an answer is encouraged to respond. \nThe idea is based on the hugely successful #AskACurator day\, set up by Mar Dixon\, which has run for several years on Twitter. The team at National Trust Midlands came up with the idea for the same sort of day for Archaeology\, and so #AskAnArchaeologist Day was born. \nThe first #AskAnArchaeologist day was in 2018 and was very successful. People from all over the world took part with lots of fascinating questions and discussions taking place. There’s nothing too formal about the day and there’s no such thing as a silly question – whatever you want to know about archaeology\, ask away and someone will (hopefully) know the answer. \nThat’s it really! In the meantime\, spread the word and get thinking of questions (or polishing up your answers).

SUMMARY:National Lollipop Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:National Lollipop Day is celebrated each year On July 20. \nThis food holiday is devoted to candies on stick that come in various shapes\, flavours\, sizes\, and colours. \nWho knew that lollipops had been around for so long? The first confectioneries that closely resemble modern-day lollipops date back to the Middle Ages. They were made with boiled sugar. However the history of the first lollipops in the United States is unclear. They are thought to have been invented in the early or mid-19th century. According to the most popular theory\, the modern version of the lollipop was invented by George Smith in the early 1900s. His lollipops were soft\, rather than hard. He named them after Lolly Pop\, a popular race horse. \nLollipops usually consist of hardened sugar and corn syrup with added flavouring. They are mounted on a stick and intended for licking or sucking. Lollipops come in dozens of flavours\, colours\, and shapes. Sometimes they contain fillings\, such as a soft candy or bubble gum. \nNational Lollipop Day is the perfect occasion to enjoy the confectionery that reminds most of us of childhood. Grab a lollipop to celebrate and buy some for your family and friends\, too!

SUMMARY:National Hot Dog Day in the USA 2023
DESCRIPTION:National Hot Dog Day is an informal holiday in the United States which is celebrated on a different date each year depending on the annual Hot Dog Lunch event\, an event hosted by the North American Meat Institute and held on Capitol Hill.

The Council is dedicated to providing consumers and media with information concerning nutrition\, preparation\, safety and quality of sausages and hot dogs as iconic American foods. It council organises and sponsors numerous events held across the United States. The proceedings from the events are often given to charity. \nTo celebrate National Hold Dog Day\, invite your friends over for a cookout and enjoy delicious hot dogs with your favourite condiments and garnishes.

SUMMARY:National Daiquiri Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:National Daiquiri Day is celebrated on July 19. \nDaiquiri is a popular rum-based cocktail\, which is believed to have been one of the favorite drinks of Ernest Hemingway and John Kennedy. Daiquiri was supposedly invented in Cuba. Its invention is usually ascribed to Jennings Cox\, American mining engineer and Congressman William A. Chanler is credited with popularization of this cocktail in clubs in New York in the early 1900s. \nBut daiquiri became really popular in the second half of the 20th century. \nThe main ingredients of daiquiri are rum\, lime juice\, and sugar or other sweetener. A basic daiquiri is made with 9 parts white rum\, 5 parts lime juice\, and 3 parts simple syrup and served in a chilled cocktail glass. There are many variations of daiquiri. For example\, if you add strawberry to a regular daiquiri you will get a strawberry daiquiri. Banana daiquiri\, pineapple daiquiri\, blueberry daiquiri\, and other fruit daiquiris are made in the same manner. Daiquiri floridita is made with maraschino liqueur. Hemingway daiquiri\, also known as papa doble\, consists of white rum\, lime juice\, grapefruit juice\, and maraschino liqueur and is made without sugar. \nTo celebrate National Daiquiri Day\, go out to a bar and treat yourself to your favorite variation of daiquiri!

SUMMARY:World Day for International Justice 2023
DESCRIPTION:Every year on July 17\, World Day for International Justice is observed all around the world. \nThe aim of the day is to promote international criminal justice and as a way of supporting the work of the ICC. \nWhat is the ICC? \nICC stands for the International Criminal Court. It came about when 120 states adopted a statute in Rome. It was known as the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court (“the Rome Stature”). All the countries that agreed to adopt the statute were accepting the jurisdiction of the ICC\, with regards the prosecution of very serious crimes. The idea was not for the ICC to replace national courts. It is only able to intervene when a country can’t or won’t carry out investigations and prosecute perpetrators. \nThe Aim of International Justice Day \nThe aim of this day is to unite everyone who wants to support justice as well as promote victims rights. It is to help prevent serious crimes and those that put the peace\, security and well-being of the world at risk. \nHow You Can Mark the Day \nThere are a number of different ways you can play a part. Why not write an article or a blog to highlight the need for justice where you live? You could send a communication to your local elected representative and voice your opinion. Speak to members of your government. Or take part in one of the many events that will be held in cities around the world.

SUMMARY:World Emoji Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:In recent years July the 17th has been known as World Emoji Day\, chosen because the calendar emoji is depicted with the date of the 17th as it’s image. \nEmoji’s have actually been used since the beginning of the internet however their popularity has increased on a massive scale with the modern day smartphone having them built into our messaging dashboards\, well known emoji merchandise on sale around the world and even an emoji movie in honour of them. \nIn a time where we communicate verbally less and less\, opting for emails\, texts\, even dictating messages through our devices\, an emoji is a great way of expressing the sentiment behind our messages when they can quite often otherwise be lost. \nHave a look through your messages and see which is your most used emoji and what this says about you.

SUMMARY:World Youth Skills Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:Young people are almost three times more likely to be unemployed than adults and continuously exposed to lower quality of jobs\, greater labor market inequalities\, and longer and more insecure school-to-work transitions. In addition\, women are more likely to be underemployed and under-paid\, and to undertake part-time jobs or work under temporary contracts. \nThat is why education and training are key determinants of success in the labor market. But unfortunately\, existing systems are failing to address the learning needs of many young people\, and surveys of learning outcomes and skills show that a large number of youth have low levels of achievement in basic literacy and numeracy. Skills and jobs for youth feature prominently in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development\, and SDG target 4.4 calls for a substantial increase in the number of youth and adults who have relevant skills.

SUMMARY:National Simplicity Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:National Simplicity Day was founded in honour of Henry David Thoreau\, who was born on July 12\, 1817. Thoreau was an advocate of living simply and wrote a number of well known books on the subject. \nIn the complicated world that we inhabit today where mobile phone’s\, laptops and other modern day gadgets mean that we very rarely experience true peace and quiet to gather our thoughts\, what better excuse to leave the technology at home and experience the feeling of truly being in the moment. \nHappy National Simplicity Day!

SUMMARY:World Population Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:A Special Day to Raise Awareness of Population Issues \nJuly 11th every year is World Population Day. This event has been celebrated for almost three decades and the aim is to focus the world’s attention on the importance of population issues. \nThe Governing Council of the United Nations Development Programme recommended its introduction in 1989. Inspiration for this special day comes from the interest that was raised by “Five Billion Day” on 11th July\, 1987. This was the day when the world’s population reached 5 billion. \nIn 1968\, the International Conference on Human Rights was held. For the first time ever\, family planning was affirmed to be a human right. The Tehran Proclamation\, adopted during the conference\, states that it is a basic right of parents to be able to decide on the number and spacing of their children. \nMillions of women\, globally\, are still not given access to safe and effective family planning methods. Which is why it has been chosen as the focus for previous years. A basic human right is to be able to get safe and effective family planning. It should also be a voluntary choice. Gender equality and women’s empowerment depend on it. Further more\, it is a key factor in reducing poverty.

SUMMARY:World Chocolate Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:Summer’s a brave choice to host World Chocolate Day at least in countries where the weather is nice and the chocolate is particularly prone to melting. British chocolate lovers like ourselves can probably breathe a sigh of relief as we gorge ourselves stupid\, even if we’re wearing a T-shirt and sitting outside to make the most of the 13C weather we’ve come to expect from early July. \nThe event is dedicated to all things cocoa-based\, and it’s certainly not time to discriminate. Indulge yourself\, share with others\, and whatever you do this World Chocolate Day\, don’t buy yourself an 85% dark chocolate and sea salt bar solely as a tool to look down on those who prefer white chocolate\, because dark chocolate is real chocolate\, unlike that sweet filth other people eat. Don’t be that person. No-one likes that person.

SUMMARY:International Kissing Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:July the 6th is International Kissing Day which is the perfect excuse to grab that special someone in your life and pucker up. But how will people around the world be celebrating International Kissing Day? Here’s a few interesting facts on how other cultures see the kiss. \nIn Italy and Greece friends\, both men and women commonly kiss each other on the lips when greeting each other\, whereas in France one air kiss on each cheek is a customary greeting.\nModern Anthropologists believe that kissing developed from “Eskimo kissing” \, which is actually the practise of rubbing noses to take in each others breath. This is also practised amongst many Pacific Islanders as a greeting\, which has led to the theory that kissing is actually a testing of another persons scent to measure compatibility!\nIn Vietnam kissing between spouses is only done in private\, with China and Japan adopting a similar attitude towards this. While people from the Netherlands actually opt for 3 kisses as a form of greeting. \nHowever you plan on marking the event\, Happy International Kissing Day everyone!

SUMMARY:Research Appreciation Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:What is Research Appreciation Day?\nResearch Appreciation Day is a day to celebrate the work of the many thousands of health researchers making a difference to people’s lives all around the world. \nAll progress\, big or small\, comes through research. Anytime there’s a problem to be solved or an improvement to be made\, research leads the way to advancement. Research has led to incredible progress like curing polio\, sending a man to the moon\, inventing the smartphone and developing new treatments for depression\, anxiety and other mental illnesses. \nIt is only though the tireless research of scientists\, health professionals and volunteers that we are able to improve the treatments available for different physical and mental health conditions. Despite this vital service\, research is often forgotten about when it comes to funding and policy decisions or discussions about health care. \nIt’s time to give research the credit it’s due. Because without research\, it’s just guesswork. \nWhen is Research Appreciation Day 2023?\nWednesday the 5th of July 2023 will be the first annual Research Appreciation day run by the charity MQ Mental Health Research.

SUMMARY:Independence Day in the USA 2023
DESCRIPTION:Today\, July 4th is Independence Day! \nIndependence Day is an important federal holiday in the United States that commemorates the adoption of the Declaration of Independence. The day marks the historical event when the United States of America declared its independence from the rule of Great Britain. \nThe declaration was adopted on July 4\, 1776 therefore the holiday is commonly referred to as the Fourth of July or July Fourth. \nOn July 2\, 1776 the Second Continental Congress approved the Lee Resolution\, also known as the resolution of independence. The text of the document formally announcing separation of the Thirteen Colonies from Great Britain and explaining this decision\, the Declaration of Independence\, was approved on July 4. \nThe text of the Declaration had been prepared by the Committee of Five\, Thomas Jefferson being the principal author. The anniversary of the Declaration would come to be celebrated as Independence Day in the United States. \nThe first celebration of July 4 occurred in 1777. However\, Independence Day had not become an official holiday until 1870 when Congress made it an unpaid holiday for federal employees. In 1938\, it was changed to a paid federal holiday. \nIndependence Day celebrations include patriotic displays\, political ceremonies and speeches\, parades\, concerts\, carnivals\, fairs. Family reunions often occur on this day; many families host or attend picnics or barbecues. In the evening\, firework displays traditionally occur. Fireworks may be accompanied by patriotic songs. Major firework displays are in New York City\, Chicago\, San Diego\, Boston\, St. Louis\, San Francisco\, Detroit\, and Washington\, D.C. \nIndependence Day also is a public holiday in some of the United States unincorporated territories\, namely Guam\, Northern Mariana Islands\, Puerto Rico\, United States Virgin Islands\, and American Samoa. \nHowever you plan to celebrate Independence Day\, enjoy yourselves and ensure you make the most of the extra days holiday!

SUMMARY:Sarcoma Awareness Month 2023
DESCRIPTION:Sarcoma Awareness Month runs for the whole of July. We’ve included a few details about Sarcoma below but there is lots of information to found here . \nSarcomas are rare cancers that develop in the muscle\, bone\, nerves\, cartilage\, tendons\, blood vessels and the fatty and fibrous tissues. \nThey can affect almost any part of the body\, on the inside or the outside. \nSarcomas commonly affect the arms\, legs and trunk. They also appear in the stomach and intestines as well as behind the abdomen (retroperitoneal sarcomas) and the female reproductive system (gynaecological sarcomas). \nBone sarcomas affect less than 500 people in the UK each year\, making it a very rare form of cancer. Not all bone cancers will be sarcomas. \nSoft tissue sarcomas can affect any part of the body; they develop in supporting or connective tissue such as the muscle\, nerves\, fatty tissue\, and blood vessels. Soft tissue sarcomas include: \nGIST is a common type of sarcoma; it develops in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract\, a long tube running through the body from the oesophagus (gullet) to the anus (back passage) and includes the stomach and intestines. \nGynaecological sarcomas (sometimes shortened to gynae sarcomas) occur in the female reproductive system: the uterus (womb)\, ovaries\, vagina\, vulva and fallopian tubes. You may also hear the term uterine sarcoma. They can affect women of any age. \nRetroperitoneal sarcomas occur in the retroperitoneum. This is an area behind the peritoneum\, the lining of the abdominal space that covers the abdominal organs. The retroperitoneum is deep in the abdomen and pelvis\, behind the abdominal lining\, where organs such as the major blood vessels\, kidneys\, pancreas and bladder are located. \nSarcoma is very rare\, and much more research needs to be done to fully understand how these cancers develop and how best to diagnose and treat them. \nPeople can survive sarcoma if their cancer is diagnosed early\, when treatments can be effective and before the sarcoma has spread to other parts of the body. It is vital that patients be referred to a specialist sarcoma team as early as possible. \nFacts and figures \nThere are three main types of sarcoma: soft tissue sarcoma\, bone sarcoma and gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GIST). \nThere are around 100 different sub-types of sarcoma \n10 people every day are diagnosed with sarcoma in the UK \nAbout 3\,800 new cases of sarcoma are diagnosed each year in the UK which makes up approximately 1% of all cancer diagnoses \nEvery year 3\,330 people are diagnosed with a soft tissue sarcoma (including GIST) \n500 people are diagnosed with a bone sarcoma every year \nIn general\, patients with a bone or soft tissue diagnosis tend to be younger than the majority of cancer patients. 16% of bone or soft tissue sarcomas are diagnosed in patients less than thirty years of age\, compared to around 2% of all cancers. 37% of bone or soft tissue sarcoma patients are aged less than 50 years. \nSarcomas make up 15% of all childhood cancers (0-14 years) and 11% of all cancer diagnoses in teenagers and young people (15-24 years) \nIn Scotland\, 350 new cases of sarcoma are diagnosed each year (200 soft tissue\, 100 bone sarcoma and 50 GIST)

SUMMARY:Clean Beaches Week 2023
DESCRIPTION:An initiative established by The Clean Beaches Coalition\, Clean Beaches week is celebrated annually from July 1st – July 7th. With so much media attention focussing on the effects of our waste on marine life\, the oceans and our coastal landscape this is an excellent opportunity to be proactive and attempt to address a small part of the overall problem while raising awareness of a much larger global challenge. \nIn 2007 the United States Senate and House of Representatives passed the National Clean Beaches Week Resolution by unanimous consent. \nKnown as the Earth Day for beaches\, hundreds of events are organized locally on beaches around the USA and include beach clean ups\, art fairs\, seafood festivals and other educational events aiming to raise awareness about respecting the beach and surrounding environment. \nThe coalition has set 7 simple reminders for those using the beach which they hope will assist the preservation of the beaches as well as protect people from the natural hazards that can occur at the shore. \n1. Leave no trace (what you carry in\, carry out) \n2. Move your body (walk\, run or swim) \n3. Don’t tread the dunes (use a walkover or walk-thru) \n4. Know your limits (swim\, surf and boat safely) \n5. You are what you eat (eat healthy seafood) \n6. Feed your mind. (read a book) \n7. Respect the Ocean (riptides\, storms\, natural resources) \nThe Clean Beaches Coalition also certifies beaches across the USA\, some of which are included in the annual USA Today Listing of the 10Best Beaches. A panel of beach experts along with 10Best contributors picked the shortlist with the top 10 winners chosen by popular vote. \nThe 4th of July is the biggest day for beach visits in the USA\, so why not go along and offer a helping hand and don’t forget the 7 Principles!

SUMMARY:National Bingo Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:Bingo is a national treasure and one of the most popular hobbies in the country – over 5 million people play bingo in the UK alone\, with more than 100 million people playing online around the world and the bingo industry contributing more than £1 billion to the UK economy – more than Netflix and Spotify combined. Hence we are looking to dedicate a day for an all-inclusive\, industry wide celebration for the love and popularity of the game. \nNational Bingo Day is currently only recognised and celebrated in the USA on 27th June. Mecca Bingo wishes to mark the occasion in the UK in its 60th year to be celebrated by the UK bingo industry on the same date. The bingo game we know and love today can be traced back to Italy in the 16th century\, from around 1530\, where it was called Il Gioco del Lotto d’Italia. It later became a favourite of the French aristocracy\, where it was known as ‘Le Lotto’\, before finally arriving on British shores in the 18th century. \nEvents and activities are planned to celebrate National Bingo Day in the UK which will all be announced early next year\, however\, initial campaign details include: \n1. Downloadable resources to play bingo/street bingo at home \n2. Competitions\, quizzes and giveaways \n3. Celebrity surprise guests \n4. Chat host games \n5. Free bingo sessions online \n6.

SUMMARY:International Sunglasses Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:Look Sharp on International Sunglasses Day! \nAnyone who enjoys spending time in the sun and wants to look cool while protecting their eyes is sure to have fun on International Sunglasses Day. The event takes place on June 27th and a number of events are organised by the Vision council to help promote the importance of wearing sunglasses. \nResearch has shown that people who do not wear sunglasses risk doing substantial damage to their eyes due to the harmful effects of the sun’s rays.

SUMMARY:Rabbit Awareness Week 2023
DESCRIPTION:Head to the Rabbit Awareness Week website to find out how you can get involved in Rabbit Awareness Week 2023. \nRAAG brings together the expertise of the RAW partners who have successfully campaigned to improve the welfare of pet rabbits for the past 17 years. \nLed by Burgess Pet Care\, the RAAG comprises the RSPCA\, Rabbit Welfare Association & Fund (RWAF)\, Wood Green The Animals Charity\, PDSA and Blue Cross. \nThe Rabbit Awareness Action Group (RAAG) is the trusted voice for rabbit welfare\, which draws on the combined knowledge of a coalition of experts who have\, for the past 17 years\, campaigned effectively through Rabbit Awareness Week (RAW) to improve the lives of pet rabbits. \nThe formation of the RAAG reflects the need to establish an on-going dialogue that ensures rabbit welfare remains high on the agenda year-round. Members of the RAAG are committed to raising awareness of the five key welfare needs of pet rabbits among owners\, particularly in light of the recent launch of the first Good Practice Code for Rabbit Welfare. \nRecognising that rabbits are one of the UK’s most owned\, but least understood\, animals\, the RAAG is determined to build on the profound and positive campaigning\, which 15 years of RAW has already achieved. Recent RAW campaigns include ‘Move Away from Muesli’\, to highlight the health risks associated with muesli-style diets\, which has resulted in fewer rabbits being fed muesli as one of their main food types – down from 49% in 2011 to 18% in 2020. This\, along with other key campaigns\, will be a key focus for the RAAG over the coming years\, helping to ensure that the UK’s pet rabbits are able to lead happy and healthy lives.

SUMMARY:International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking 2023
DESCRIPTION:Yes\, it may not have the snappiest title but the International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking is a key plank in the United Nations’ war on drugs. \nOriginally instigated by a resolution of a special session on drugs of the UN’s General Assembly in 1987\, the annual awareness day was founded to mark the centenary of China’s early efforts to combat the trade in opium – widely regarded as the start of the international war on drugs. \nCelebrated each year on June 26th\, the UN Office on Drugs and Crime uses the commemorative day to highlight the dangers of drug use and their illegal trade and provides educational material to teachers and public officials all over the world to help spread the message about the extreme cultural and economic harm the trade in drugs is still doing across the globe one hundred years after the war on drugs was initially launched in Shanghai around the start of the 20th Century. \nThe importance of the strategy was reinforced when the UN decided to hold a General Assembly on drugs to mark a milestone in the progress of an earlier policy document which called on members states to combat both drug demand and supply\, while improving access to treatment for addicts. \n

SUMMARY:National Catfish Day in the USA 2023
DESCRIPTION:No\, this has absolutely nothing to do with MTV\, the internet or dating. This unsurprisingly has everything to do with catfish! Perhaps one of the lesser known days of recognition and celebration\, National Catfish Day has assisted the continued growth of this specific type of aqua farming across the USA. \nJune 25 is National Catfish Day in the USA. The holiday was designated by President Ronald Reagan on June 25 in 1987. National Catfish Day celebrates the value of farm-raised fish. \nOriginally the commemorative bill was proposed by Congressmen Mike Epsy\, who having recognised the industry as growing in his home state\, endeavoured to encourage the growth of the industry further afield. Catfish were not a popular choice of delicacy at the time. Although initially the bill was unsuccessful\, Mr Epsy garnered support from fellow congressmen and was also able\, by providing the best catfish luncheons to military leaders\, to ensure catfish was added to the military commissary menu. As a result his popularity at election time grew in his home state\, thanks to the increase in demand for catfish\, as did support for the bill. The text of the Proclamation by President Ronald Reagan\, illustrates the boom in the industry\, the increase in sales and the innovative methods developed to ensure the highest standards were met. \nSo why not look up some Catfish recipes and find out just why they make one of the USA’s most popular fish to eat? \n  \n

SUMMARY:Day of the Seafarer 2023
DESCRIPTION:June 25 is the Day of the Seafarer\, an annual and international event day coordinated by the International Maritime Organisation. \nLast year’s Day of the Seafarer celebrated seafarers and let the world know how and why seafarers are indispensable to everyone. This year the Day will recognise the unique contribution made by seafarers from all over the world to international seaborne trade\, the world economy and civil society as a whole\, with the theme Seafarers Matter’. \nThe day recognises the unique and vital role of seafarers in the global community\, and the United Nations recognise the Day of the Seafarer as an observance day. \nThe Day of the Seafarer was established in 2010 by by a resolution adopted at a diplomatic conference in Manila. The revised International Convention on Standards of Training\, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW)\, the original STCW was to ensure an international standard of competency and welfare for seafarers\, for their safety\, and the revision was to ensure the upholding of the Day of the Seafarer as part of this. The convention’s aim was to recognise the contribution by seafarers to society and economy globally. \nThe resolution encourages governments\, shipping firms\, companies associated with sea trade and others\, to promote and uphold sea trade and seafarers through the Day of the Seafarer. \nThe day encourages international public and official conversation about seafarers and seafaring\, and the well-being of those involved in it\, and interactive media relating to the Day of the Seafarer has proved extremely popular around the world\, for example quizzes and interactive maps\, videos and photo galleries\, and social media hashtags and discussions. The day aims to see events run in ports and seafarer centres as well as online. \nLeading up to the 25 June\, seafarers are being invited to answer questions on what a fair future for seafarers looks like. The answers will be shared afterwards and will provide a soundboard to help guide our actions moving forward. Polls are available on all IMO social media platforms.

SUMMARY:Leon Day in the USA 2023
DESCRIPTION:Leon Day is an unofficial holiday celebrated in the United States on June 25. It is the halfway mark to Christmas. The exact origin of Leon Day is unknown. However\, it is clear why it was named so: Leon is Noel (another name for Christmas) spelled backwards. \nThe date of June 25 marks the turning point when Christmas begins to come closer on the calendar. Although Leon Day is not an official holiday\, it is celebrated by many businesses and organizations in a number of ways. For example\, retailers may offer special deals and promotions. Some radio stations play Christmas music during the day. For many crafters\, Leon Day is a time to start making decorations and gifts for Christmas. \nNonprofit organizations and charities may hold fundraisers to remind people that donations are appreciated all year round\, and not exclusively during the Christmas season. For example\, the Salvation Army sometimes observes Leon Day with launching an out-of-season Christmas kettle campaign. \nSome people celebrate Leon Day as a mini Christmas. They get out Christmas decorations\, put on ugly holidays sweaters and Santa hats\, watch their favorite Christmas movies\, and treat themselves to eggnog\, gingerbread\, and candy canes. \nWhether you celebrate it or not\, the countdown begins now!

SUMMARY:World Sand Dune Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:A World Sand Dune Day is being setup to highlight the importance of sand dunes. \nHealthy dunes provide habitats for a wealth of rare and specialised wildlife. These include a range of wildflowers\, bryophytes\, invertebrates and insects who require bare sand habitat to survive.Coastal sand dunes are also beautiful and important landscapes for communities\, both as recreational spaces allowing personal connection with nature\, and as places filled with cultural heritage and celebrated sites of historic renown. \nOver the last 80 years\, open sand has largely disappeared from UK sand dunes\, being replaced by dense grass and scrub. This change has been caused by factors such as the introduction of non-native plants\, lower levels of grazing\, climate change and air pollution. As the dunes have become more stable and overgrown\, rare wildlife has declined. \nThe day is being set up by the Twyni Byw-Sands of LIFE and Dynamic Dunescapes projects. These are two projects working to protect sand dunes and the wildlife that depends upon them. Events are still currently at planning stage\, but you can keep in touch by visiting their twitter accounts: @TwyniByw and @DynamicDunes. The hashtag for the day will be #WorldSandDuneDay. \nSands of LIFE (LIFE17 NAT/UK/000023) is a major conservation project to revitalise sand dunes across Wales. It will recreate natural movement in the dunes and rejuvenate habitats which are home to some of our rarest wildlife. The £4 million project\, led by Natural Resources Wales (NRW)\, will restore over 2400 hectares of sand dunes\, across four Special Areas of Conservation\, on 10 separate Welsh sites. The project has received 75% funding from the LIFE Programme of the European Union\, with the Welsh Government providing 25% match funding. \nDynamic Dunescapes (HG-16-08643; LIFE17 NAT/UK/000570-DuneLIFE) is a partnership project rejuvenating sand dunes in England and Wales. Project partners are Natural England\, Plantlife\, Natural Resources Wales\, National Trust and The Wildlife Trusts. The project is funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund and the EU LIFE Programme. For more information visit http://www.dynamicdunescapes.co.uk

This ground-breaking global awareness week\, spearheaded by international NGO\, How Many Elephants (HME) celebrates and supports female wildlife rangers – They’re bold\, changing the game and paving the way for women to stand alongside men at the forefront of conservation\, but they need allies.\n\nThe pioneering World Female Ranger Week (WFRW) includes online and live events\, plus a fundraising platform – http://www.worldfemalerangerweek.org – to raise vital funds for the ranger teams and share their stories. \nThe founder of How Many Elephants and World Female Ranger Week\, Holly Budge says\, “having patrolled with multiple ranger teams in Africa\, I’ve seen first-hand how these bold women are impacting lives; Protecting wildlife\, uplifting communities and empowering other women. WFRW highlights the significant gender imbalance in environmental conservation. My team and I will continue collating gender-specific data about female rangers globally\, enabling us to identify their needs\, find tangible solutions and help build effective policies to contribute towards positive outcomes; for female rangers and conservation as a whole.” \nAs champions of wildlife conservation\, as role models\, as educators and as beacons of hope\, female rangers are not only transforming attitudes towards the role of women around the world; they are showing the capabilities and success of females in traditionally male roles. However\, less than 11% of the global wildlife ranger workforce is female. With women being natural communicators\, protectors and investing their earned income in their families\, bringing gender equality into the workforce enhances community conservation efforts and relationships. Over the last two years\, the pandemic has crippled tourism and funding for conservation projects globally. The lack of tourists visiting National Parks has led to many rangers losing their jobs or having significant salary cuts. The knock-on effect of this is huge. For example\, one ranger in Africa may support up to 16 family members. Additionally\, reduced vigilance in tourist hotspots has left wildlife even more vulnerable to poaching. \nSo\, the often-challenging work of rangers is paramount right now. Day and night\, female rangers patrol wilderness areas\, monitoring wildlife\, seizing snares\, working with communities and in some cases\, arresting poachers\, all to save iconic species from extinction. They are away from their families for long periods\, sometimes facing workplace security issues and battling social stigma. Many of these inspirational women have overcome adversity\, poverty and marginalisation. Becoming a ranger has empowered them\, turned them into breadwinners and property owners\, and has allowed them access to higher education and much-needed healthcare. They need our support to continue their vital work. \n\nWhen is World Female Ranger Week? \nJune 23rd-30th 2023 (and annually)\nHow to get involved in World Female Ranger Week?\n\nWorld Female Ranger Week is seeking long-term strategic partnerships with companies\, associations\, and global citizens to expand the campaign’s reach to strengthen the support of female rangers. Businesses and individuals can set up fundraising pages via worldfemalerangerweek.org. \nFor updates\, follow @worldfemalerangerweek on Instagram and Facebook\, @femalerangerwk on Twitter\, or use hashtag\, #worldfemalerangerweek.

SUMMARY:International Widows Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:International Widows Day is a global awareness day that takes place annually on 23rd June. The day was launched by the United Nations in 2010 to raise awareness of the violation of human rights that widows suffer in many countries following the death of their spouses. \nIn many countries with traditional societies\, women find themselves left in poverty when their husband dies. In some countries\, these women find themselves denied of inheritance and land rights\, evicted from their homes\, ostracised and abused. The children of widows also often find themselves affected\, withdrawn from school and more vulnerable to abuse\, especially in the case of girls. \nInternational Widows Day works to encourage action in achieving full rights for widows\, highlighting the need for more research and statistics into violence\, discrimination and poverty suffered by widows and develop policies and programmes to address the problem.\nThe ultimate goal of the day is to develop resources and policy to empower widows and allow them to have access to education\, work\, healthcare and lives free of violence and abuse. Enabling them to create a life for themselves and their children following the death of their husband and ending a cycle of poverty and abuse. \nFurther details about International Widows Day can be found at www.un.org

SUMMARY:International Women In Engineering Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:International Women in Engineering Day is an international awareness campaign to raise the profile of women in engineering and focus attention on the amazing career opportunities available to girls in this exciting industry. It celebrates the outstanding achievements of women engineers throughout the world. \nTaking place annually on 23 June\, National Women in Engineering Day was launched for the first time in the UK in 2014 by the Women’s Engineering Society (WES) to celebrate its 95th anniversary. Since that launch the day has grown enormously over the subsequent years to the point where it received UNESCO patronage in 2016. In 2017\, National Women in Engineering Day became international for the first time due to the interest and enthusiasm developed by the international audience and participants in the previous years. International Women in Engineering Day (INWED) was born to allow the celebration of women in engineering to become global. In previous years we’ve aimed to encourage all groups (Governmental\, educational\, corporate\, Professional Engineering Institutions\, individuals and other organisations) to organise their own events in support of the day\, and link them together for maximum impact through the use of the INWED logo/campaign\, corresponding website\, and supporting resources. \nTarget Groups: \nGovernment\nEducation\nCorporate\nProfessional Engineering Institutions\nOther companies and organisations in the Sector\nIndividuals\nYoung people’s groups\nSpecial interest networks and groups\nPress \nWe suggest organisers get as much publicity for their events as possible\, to get engineering‚ and girls‚ (or women!) into the same sentence as often as possible\, and to start to raise the profile of an engineering career as a great choice\, with an exciting future\, and amazing opportunities.

SUMMARY:Reserves Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:Reservists give up their spare time to serve in the Reserve Forces\, balancing their civilian life with a military career to ensure that should their country require them\, they would be ready to serve as part of the military. \nThe Reserve Forces make up approximately one sixth of our Armed Forces personnel and as such are integral to protecting the nation’s security at home and overseas\, particularly providing capability in specialist areas such as medical and cyber. \nReservists are currently supporting operations worldwide. \nHowever\, the contribution they make to our Armed Forces often goes unrecognised. As such an annual Reserves Day was created to highlight and recognise the valuable contribution Reservists make to our Armed Forces. \nIn 2023\, Reserves Day is being celebrated on Wednesday the 21st of June. \nCelebrating Reserves Day \nReservists are everywhere\, but you might not know it. So on Reserves Day\, our Reservists wear their uniform in their civilian life here are some from the last few years! Keep an eye out for them this year. \nWe’re asking employers to thank our Reservists across the UK for their dedication\, professionalism and commitment to serving our country. Whether you are a large organisation\, small business\, charity or self-employed\, show your support on 22 June by holding a workplace talk\, organising an event or just publicly showing your support to celebrate Reserves Day. Look at our toolkits for more suggestions.

SUMMARY:World Humanist Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:Humanists around the world celebrate World Humanist Day every year on 21st June. The day of the June solstice\, a day symbolised by gatherings\, it is an occasion for Humanists to promote the values they hold.

From proclamations to ceremonies\, parties to videos and conferences\, World Humanist Day is an opportunity to publicise Humanism\, to reach out to the media and educate. Different themes may be adopted in different countries but each to the same aim\, to improve awareness of Humanist thinking and Humanist values. \nMoney and awareness may be raised for a free-thought group in another country\, illustrating the solidarity of the movement. With June 21st being summer solstice in the Northern hemisphere many participants will take to the outdoors to mark the day\, either with a party or even a picnic\, encouraging families to get involved and learn all about the ethical values of humanism.

SUMMARY:National Peaches and Cream Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:June 21 is National Peaches and Cream Day. \nPeaches are great summer fruit to make a special treat. Today you can end your day with peaches and cream. \nSome interesting trivia for you on this day! Did you known\, that China is the biggest producer of peaches? The second is Italy. \nAnyway\, peaches grow in 38 states of the USA\, that is why you can enjoy fresh peaches anytime in summer. And today is a great day to make a special treat for your family. \nTo make this mouth watering treat you will need: ripe peaches\, whipping cream\, hazelnuts\, basil leaves. Make sure that you don’t use overripe peaches otherwise they will become messy on the grill. Cut the peaches into two halves and remove the pit. Grease your grill with oil to prevent sticking. Grill the peaches to slightly caramelize them. While peaches are grilling\, whip the cream. Chop toasted nuts or crash them with a rolling pin\, if you had a bad day. Put grilled peaches in plates grilled side up\, add a spoon of cream and chopped hazelnuts. Garnish the dessert with fresh basil leaves. \nThis is a perfect treat to celebrate the holiday.

SUMMARY:Global Car Recycling Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:What is Global Car Recycling Day?\n\nGlobal Car Recycling Day is an annual event established to raise awareness of the importance of responsible car recycling – protecting our environment and supporting sustainable car production.\n\nIt’s clear that while most countries’ populations love their cars\, at the end of the cars’ lives they are not always shown the same love and neither is the environment! While domestic recycling is second nature in most economically developed nations\, cars are a complicated and potentially environmentally dangerous item – even more so with the advent of electric vehicles – that many people are still unaware can be effectively recycled.\n\nWith over 1.4 billion cars on roads globally\, it’s vital the public makes\, and has the option to make\, a responsible choice when their vehicle gets to the end of its life.\n\nGlobal Car Recycling Day is driven by international car recycling expert CarTakeBack. Operating with government agencies\, numerous leading vehicle manufacturers\, hundreds of recyclers\, world-leading recycling experts and most importantly serving climate-conscious customers\, CarTakeBack felt it was vital to draw more attention to this unique recycling issue across the world… Hence the birth of Global Car Recycling Day!\n\nWhen is Global Car Recycling Day 2023?\n\n20th June is a day to raise awareness with the public about responsible car recycling\, also to highlight the need for governments across the world to tighten car recycling regulations and support related industries. The public can drive that progress by demanding an environmentally responsible route for the disposal of their old car.\n\nThis awareness day can also celebrate the vehicle dismantlers and recyclers that are delivering initiatives to support vehicle manufacturers. Circular economies – key to sustainable car production – can only be achieved when the disposal of cars is considered from conception and effective car recycling is achieved.\n\nGlobal Car Recycling Day needs to generate conversations in homes\, businesses and governments about how important car recycling is if we are to maintain the world’s most popular form of travel and protect our environment.\n\nYou can get involved in the chat on Twitter using the hashtag #GlobalCarRecyclingDay.

SUMMARY:World Refugee Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:World Refugee Day is held on June 20th. This is an annual event\, held on the same date each year. \nWorld Refugee Day honours the strength and courage of refugees and encourages public awareness and support of the refugees\, people who have had to flee their home lands because of conflict or natural disaster. \nRefugees are vulnerable and in need\, and are often misunderstood and maligned\, and often have very little or nothing of their posessions and little food\, they often have to leave their homes with nothing or with what they can carry. They suffer cold\, hunger\, trauma\, despair\, disease\, violence and loss. The awareness day is to help public understanding of refugees as well as raising support and help. \nAcross the world\, agencies\, both governmental and non-governmental\, work tirelessly to help refugees\, but with people being made refugees daily\, more help and awareness is constantly needed\, to ensure that refugees are treated fairly and provided for\, rather than being neglected or shunned\, and there are projects to re-settle and provide for refugees. So World Refugee Day highlights all of this. And now it also marks the launch of the ‘With Refugees’ petition\, which will state the needs and potential rights of refugees.

The LDN Research Trust is a non-profit Registered Charity\, and everyone is a volunteer. \nTo help us continue our work to bring relief to all people with multiple sclerosis and other conditions\, we would appreciate help with fundraising\, either in cash or in kind. You can be sure that all contributions are greatly appreciated\, however small. \nWhen is LDN Awareness Week?\n19-25 June 2023 \nHow to get involved in LDN Awareness Week\nThis year we are excited to team up with other charities to increase the impact of our campaign.\nDuring LDN Awareness Week\, the LDN Research Trust will provide a range of information and resources to help people with Autoimmune Diseases\, Cancers\, Mental Health\, Chronic Pain\, etc. If you’re a charity member or organiser and would like to work with us to create an event around LDN Awareness Week\, or if you’d like to discuss other ideas such as cross-promotion\, discounts and promotions for our book series (The LDN Books 1\, 2 and 3) or work to co-host an event about LDN we’d love to hear from you. \nYou can find out more about the LDN23 conference here.

SUMMARY:Refugee Week 2023

In the UK\, Refugee Week is a nationwide programme of arts\, cultural and educational events that celebrate the contribution of refugees to the UK\, and encourages a better understanding between communities. \nRefugee Week started in 1998 as a direct reaction to hostility in the media and society in general towards refugees and asylum seekers.

SUMMARY:Cervical Screening Awareness Week 2023
DESCRIPTION:Cervical Screening Awareness Week is an annual event which will run from  the 19th to the 24th of June 2023. The week aims to highlight the importance of regular cervical screening for women’s health. \nCervical cancer is the most common form of cancer in women under 35 with two women in the UK per day dying from the disease. Regular cervical screening appointments can prevent up to 75% of instances of cervical cancer\, saving 5000 lives per year. Despite this\, many women are reluctant to have this test done with a quarter of women not responding to their screening invitation. Cervical Screening Awareness Week is organised by the charity Jo’s trust\, a charity dedicated to women affected by cervical cancer or abnormalities. \nCervical Screening Awareness week aims to encourage all women to have regular cervical screening as well as to provide information and reassurance around any fears or embarrassment that women may have concerning taking the test. \nDuring the week there will be information stands at GP surgeries\, workplaces and sports centres\, fundraising events and a social media campaign where women are urged to tell their stories relating to cervical cancer and cervical screening. \nMore information about Cervical Screening Awareness Week and information about cervical cancer and cervical screening itself can be found on the Jo’s Trust website www.jostrust.org.uk or from your local GP’s office.

SUMMARY:Autistic Pride Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:Every year\, organisations from across the globe celebrate Autistic Pride Day on June 18 with a variety of events. The aim of this day is to raise awareness amongst those who are not on the autistic spectrum disorder so they do not see autistic people as requiring treatment\, but as unique individuals. \nThis annual event was first celebrated by Aspies for Freedom in 2005 and they modelled Autistic Pride Day on the gay pride movement. One of the most significant aspects of the day is that it is not run by charities; it is run by autistic people themselves. Since its beginnings\, Autistic Pride Day has been a community event and not a day for other organisations to promote themselves by stifling autistic people. It is now a global celebration that takes place predominantly online. \nAutistic Pride Day is represented by the rainbow infinity symbol. This symbol is intended to represent the diversity of autistic people and the infinite possibilities and variations within the autistic community. \nAccording to representatives of Autistic Pride Day\, people with autism have unique characteristics that provide them with both rewards and challenges. Although many of the difficulties they face are because of their neurodiversity\, another factor is issues in society. For example\, society’s attitude towards autism is often one of pity or a belief that it is a condition requiring treatment. \nActivists want to shift attitudes away from this and towards acceptance and the realisation that autism is a difference rather than a disability.

SUMMARY:World Day to Combat Desertification and Drought 2023
DESCRIPTION:Since 1994\, June 17th has been the World Day to Combat Desertification and Drought to draw public attention to the UN Convention to Combat Desertification and it has been celebrated ever since. \nDesertification is an increasing ecological problem. It occurs when previously fertile land becomes desert through deforestation\, drought or improper agriculture. The Convention specifically covers the areas of the planet which are the most at risk of desertification. These areas are often home to some of the most vulnerable people and eco-systems. Each June 17th\, the World Day to Combat Desertification is promoted worldwide to raise public awareness of\, and support for\, international efforts in combating desertification and the effects of drought. \nThe 196 parties to the convention try to improve living conditions for people in these areas by restoring and maintaining the soil fertility and by mitigating the effects of drought. The parties encourage participation by local people on schemes to fight desertification and land degradation such as tree planting. They firmly believe that land degradation neutrality is possible though strong community involvement and cooperation at all levels. \nThe UNCCD Secretariat\, the country parties to the convention and its stakeholders try to educate the public about effective methods to work the land without causing degradation. The invested organisations celebrate the day by organising outreach programmes and by holding awareness raising events.

SUMMARY:World Elder Abuse Awareness Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:World Elder Abuse Awareness Day is held on June 15th and is an annual international UN observance day on the same date each year. The day came about as a result of UN resolution 66/127. \nWith a growing global population of elderly people\, and as longevity increases\, abuse of the elderly is an increasing and serious problem that affects health and human rights and can cause death\, so it is vital to raise awareness of it and thus prevent it whenever and wherever possible. \nElder abuse is global and comes in many forms including physical\, emotional\, sexual and financial abuse and also neglect. Elderly people are human and deserve the same dignity and respect as people of all other age groups. \nElderly people are particularly vulnerable to abuse and to being unable to defend themselves and get help as fear and infirmity can be major barriers to seeking and getting help\, and sometimes spotting and challenging abuse in the elderly isn’t easy\, some are isolated having outlived family and friends\, and some are abused in institutions where abuse is not spotted or is covered up\, and in some cases the elderly are not given priority by authorities in abuse matters. \nThe UN aims to raise awareness of elder abuse and prevent it\, and on World Elder Abuse Awareness Day\, communities and the press and media can run events and highlight the danger of elder abuse and what can be done to prevent it and what to do if it is spotted.

SUMMARY:World Blood Donor Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:World Blood Donor Day is an annual event\, usually on the same date each year\, to thank voluntary blood donors and acknowledge them and encourage blood donation and new donors\, especially by representing how blood donations have saved and changed lives. The Day has the slogan ‘Share Life\, Give Blood’\, referring to the caring and cohesion that giving blood and caring for others involves. \nOne of the aims of the day is to encourage younger people\, who might be a bit nervous or unsure about giving blood\, to feel encouraged to sign up and start donating\, so that the donor population doesn’t decline but stays strong. It is also to highlight the need to for donations to be regular in order to keep stocks and quality of blood donations high. \nBlood donation saves millions of lives annually and helps with the recovery and health of patients who have illnesses or injuries\, complex operations or childbirth problems. Blood stocks are also essential in natural and man-made disasters. Some blood types are rare\, so promoting the need for rare donor types is also part of this event. World Blood Donor Day is vital in highlighting the need for blood donors and regular donations. \nMany countries still have a shortage of donors\, and thus World Blood Donor Day is vital to these countries to raise awareness of blood donation and thus increase supply in order to save as many lives as possible.

SUMMARY:Brake's Kids Walk 2023
DESCRIPTION:It is every child’s right to be able to walk in their community without fear of traffic and pollution. Danger from traffic is a big factor in whether families are able to walk safely in the places where they live. It affects their ability to be healthy and socially active. \nChildren of all ages are at risk of being hurt or killed when walking near roads. On average\, six children are killed or seriously injured on roads in Britain every day – that’s equivalent to a whole class of children every single week. \nBrake’s Kids Walk is a great way to inspire and engage children about the dangers they face and raise awareness among parents and the wider community about the need to protect children on roads. \nIt’s also a great opportunity to fundraise for Brake and support families who have lost loved ones in road crashes.

SUMMARY:Sewing Machine Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:A Day That Celebrates the Invention of the Sewing Machine\nHow many of you have heard of National Sewing Machine Day? We’d put money on there only being a few. Who is responsible for creating this unusual day? We really couldn’t find a culprit. What is its purpose? To celebrate the invention of the sewing machine of course. It is observed every year on June 13.\nWho Invented the Sewing Machine?\nThis is a much easier question to answer. It was English inventor Thomas Saint who applied for the first sewing machine patent\, in 1790. The design for Thomas’s sewing machine was never taken any further\, and there is no evidence that his machine for stitching leather and canvas was ever made. \nA working model of a sewing machine wasn’t made until 1874. A guy named William Newton Wilson found the drawings made by Saint in the Patent Office in London. He made some adjustments to the design and went on to build a working model. This model is now on display in the London Science Museum. \nSewing machines have been used in industrial settings for many years\, and it wasn’t all that long ago you would have found one in many people’s homes. They went out of fashion for several years\, with the influx of cheap manufactured clothes and furnishings. But are currently enjoying a bit of a revival. \nIf you want to celebrate National Sewing Machine Day\, the best way to do it is to get stitching and make something for yourself or your family.

SUMMARY:Carers Week 2023
DESCRIPTION:About Carers Week \nCarers Week is an annual campaign to raise awareness of caring\, highlight the challenges unpaid carers face and recognise the contribution they make to families and communities throughout the UK. It also helps people who don’t think of themselves as having caring responsibilities to identify as carers and access much-needed support. \nThe campaign is brought to life by thousands of individuals and organisations who come together to provide support for carers\, run activities and highlight the vital role carers play in our communities\, drawing attention to just how important caring is. \nCarers need to be recognised for the difficulties they are experiencing\, respected for all they are doing\, provided with information\, and given the support they need to care safely. \nA carer is anyone who looks after a family member or friend who has a disability\, mental or physical illness\, addiction\, or who needs extra help as they grow older. Caring’s impact on all aspects of life from relationships and health to finances and work can be significant. Whilst many feel that caring is one of the most important things they do\, its challenges should not be underestimated. Caring without the right information and support can be tough. It is vitally important that we recognise the contribution carers make to their families and local communities\, workplaces and society\, and that they get the support they need. \nFind out how you can get involved in this year’s Carer’s Week here\, and show your support by saying “I Care” on social media.

SUMMARY:World Milk Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:Raise a glass to celebrate World Milk Day 2023 \nWe say Cheers’\, Mma manu’\, Yam sing‚to the parents who make sure there’s always a carton in the fridge\, to the hard working dairy farmers\, to the organisations who provide dairy supplements to help tackle famine and malnutrition\, to the huge network of people who help us to enjoy milk. \nAs we Raise a Glass to milk\, we connect with others and invite them to join the celebration that the goodness represents. It allows us to share the stories about all the goodness of milk and all the people who produce it. It offers a simple\, natural way to recognize the people who matter most to us ‚ in our communities\, schools and homes. \nBack in 2001\, somebody decided that the world should take a day to celebrate anything and everything related to milk. They requested that the FAO (the Food and Agriculture Organisations of the United Nations) should put forward a specific day for these festivities they selected June 1st\, and the rest his history! \nThe tradition of celebrating World Milk Day on June 1st came from the fact that many countries were already celebrating World Milk Day on or around this date. A date in late May was originally proposed\, but some countries felt that they already had too many holidays around this time. As a result\, June 1st became the special day dedicated to milk. \nWorld Milk Day puts a lot of attention on milk and does a great job in publicising activities connected with the milk industry. The fact that many countries around the globe all choose this specific day for World Milk Day shows that milk is a food that is cherished worldwide.

SUMMARY:World No Tobacco Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:The World Health Organisation’s World No Tobacco Day is every year on 31st May. It was created to bring awareness to more people about the dangers and health risks of smoking tobacco\, and ultimately\, to stop use of tobacco around the world. \nThe vast majority of the population of the developed countries is aware of the dangers of tobacco and smoking. Over 7 million people are killed across the globe by smoking Tobacco alone. Many of us know it is believed to be the leading cause of throat and lung cancers\, and a major risk factor in many other types of cancer. However\, what is little known is that smoking tobacco is one of the main cause of heart problems and diseases. The aim of World No Tobacco Day is to highlight this issue. \nTobacco use and second-hand smoke are known to contribute to around 12% of all deaths from heart disease and is the second leading cause of Cardio Vascular Disease\, second only to high blood pressure (which smoking can also contribute to). While these numbers are bad for smokers\, it’s important to remember that nearly 900\,000 people are killed by breathing in second-hand smoke. The World No Tobacco Day also wants to highlight this issue that smokers don’t just affect their health\, but that of the people and loved ones around them. \nFinally\, the WHO wants to bring awareness to the fact that of the over 1 billion people worldwide that smoke\, nearly 80% of those are in low-income countries where tobacco-related disease and death will have the hardest impact.

SUMMARY:National Mint Julep Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:May 30 is National Mint Julep Day. This drink was introduced at the Kentucky Derby in the 1930s and since then it has become the event’s official drink. Mint julep is the best refreshing summer drink\, made of water\, sugar\, Bourbon and spearmint. It’s similar to Mojito\, but rum was replaced by Bourbon. \nBartenders have their own trick to enhance the flavour- bruise the mint leaves a little before you add other ingredients\, then you’ll have a flavorful drink. \nThe drink can be made easily at home\, and can even be adapted so that it doesn’t contain alcohol. Shake 65ml of bourbon in a glass with 10 mint leaves\, 12.5ml of sugar syrup and plenty of crushed ice. Garnish your drink with a sprig of mint. Or if you are feeling adventurous and fancy something a bit more exotic\, there are all kinds of fruity amendments that can be made to the recipe. \nWhatever your tipple\, invite your friends over for a party with homemade mint julep. Enjoy this unique drink even when Kentucky Derby is over. The refreshing taste of mint julep is perfect for any hot summer day.

SUMMARY:International Day of United Nations Peacekeepers 2023
DESCRIPTION:Every May 29th\, the world celebrates the International Day of United Nations Peacekeepers. \nThe United Nations Peacekeepers are a force made up of over 113\,000 people\, (though more than a million have served since it first started 70 years ago) both police forces and civilians. Created from 125 countries\, and serving in 14 missions all over the world currently. They are used to protect and care for civilians\, disarm ex-combatants\, ensure ceasefires are kept\, protect human rights\, the rules of law and supporting free and fair democracy. They also work tirelessly to make sure women’s voices are heard and growing in civilian\, military and political life. \nThe International Day of United Nations Peacekeepers was created to celebrate the people who serve with the force and veterans of the service\, pay tribute to those who have lost their lives trying to make the world a better place through the force and help bring awareness of this force for good in the world. While many are aware of the Peacekeepers\, very few are aware of what missions it carries out constantly. The budget for the force is also only less than 0.5% of the money spent in military worldwide. \nThis year alone\, they are present in Cote d’Ivoire\, Haiti\, Liberia\, Southern Sudan\, Mali and continue to work across the globe on removing landmines and explosives abandoned after wars. These explosives continue to be a problem for many people trying to put their lives back together after war and expand farmland\, create new communities and just explore.

SUMMARY:National Biscuit Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:Hoorah! The 29th May each year is National Biscuit Day\, so if you’re nuts about Ginger Nuts or more of a Custard Cream kind of a person – (personally I don’t think there’s any excuse in the world for a Custard Cream being top of your dunking list\, but each to their own.) I’m pretty sure we can all agree that May 29th is up there with one of the best awareness days. \nSo normally we might put a little bit about the nations favourite biscuit\, the history of the biscuit\, a few biscuit facts etc but i’m not going to kid myself that you’re even still sat reading this.

SUMMARY:Oak Apple Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:As perhaps the most British day in the calendar\, Oak Apple Day has absolutely nothing to do with celebrating apples themselves and everything to do with the restoration of the monarchy\, following the rule of Oliver Cromwell and his anti-royal cohorts. Cromwell was a man so miserable that he banned Christmas\, and it was for this (but probably more the execution of Charles I) that he was dug up two years after he died and posthumously executed. What a time to be alive. \nOther names for Oak Apple Day include Restoration Day\, Royal Oak Day\, Shick Shack Day\, Packie Bonner Day\, Oak and Nettle Day\, and Yak Bob Day. Apart from Packie Bonner Day we made that one up using the name of the former Celtic and Ireland goalkeeper. But you’d believe it if we left it in\, wouldn’t you?

SUMMARY:World Hunger Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:Everyone Deserves to Eat\, Support World Hunger Day 2023 \nIt has been estimated that almost 800 million people in the world don’t have enough food to eat. This is quite a staggering figure. In 2011\, The Hunger Project started an initiative known as World Hunger Day.

Leaders of this organisation include business executives\, heads of state and experts in women’s rights and social justice. It was founded in 1977 and is a worldwide\, non-profit group of like-minded people. \nWhat You Can do to Show Your Support \nOne of the most obvious ways is to make a donation to the The Hunger Project Trust. Money raised will go to help both men and women in developing countries become agents of their own development. There is a Social Media Toolkit that can be used for sharing posts on Facebook\, Twitter and Instagram. You can tell your friends about World Hunger Day and ask for their support. \nAre You Brave Enough to Try a Week Without Sugar? \nAnyone interested in showing their support is being encouraged to give up sugar for one week. That means no added\, processed sugar or artificial sweeteners. It won’t be easy but is a good way to show support for all the millions of people around the world who live below the poverty line and go to bed hungry every night.

SUMMARY:European Neighbours' Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:Every Year at the End of May is European Neighbour’s Day \nNeighbour’s Day celebrations take place all over the world. The European Neighbour’s Day is held at the end of may and encourages residents groups and housing organisations to participate and organise their own individual events. \nWhat is the Goal of Neighbour’s Day? \nNeighbour’s day is organised by the European Federation of Local Solidarity.

Ever since then\, more and more countries have been taking part. Last year\, for example\, there were more than 30 million participants from 36 different countries. \nHow You Can Take Part \nAll it takes to participate is the organising of a party with your neighbours. It could be in your own garden\, out in the street or in a local community hall. The idea is to get people together so that neighbours who rarely speak can talk to each other and have fun together. \nSupport is available from EFLS and there is even an award that housing associations\, organisers and mayors can put themselves forward for. A promotional video\, guide\, timetable and press kit is also provided for organisers needs.

Of these\, the BRAF mutation is most common: around 40-50% of melanoma patients have it. \nThere are treatments available that specifically target this type of mutation and a test to determine your BRAF status will be carried out when you are diagnosed. You should be told the result to help decide the best form of treatment. \nHow can I get involved in Melanoma BRAF Awareness Day?\nJoin the conversation on social media by following Melanoma UK and using the campaign hashtags #MelanomaBRAFAwarenessDay \nGet to know your BRAF status – check out our ‘Get under the skin of it’ \nAsk your medical team more questions – download our patient guide and checklist.

SUMMARY:World Turtle Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:World Turtle Day is an annual event that has been taking place since 2000. It was founded by American Tortoise Rescue. \nThe purpose of World Turtle Day is to educate people about the things that they can do to protect the habitats of turtle and tortoises. It is also a celebration of the joy that these reptiles bring to so many people on a daily basis. \nThe day is celebrated in a number of ways all over the world. There are many people that dress as turtles while others may just decide to wear something green. People also get actively involved in projects that help rescue turtles that may be living in their local area. \nThere are also a number of resources that are made available to schools that teachers can use to create lessons around World Turtle Day. This is an important step in raising awareness in the future generation of the threats that turtles and tortoises face. It is also something that children enjoy getting involved in. \nAmerican Tortoise Rescue (ATR) was founded in 1990 by husband and wife team Susan Tellem and Marshall Thompson. It is a nonprofit organisation that rescues and rehabilitates all species of tortoise and turtle. It also does a lot of work on protecting the environments in which these animals live. They will always try and find new homes for the animals but if this is not possible then they will remain in the care of the ATR.

SUMMARY:National Taffy Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:May 23 is National Taffy Day. So for today only you can snack with your favorite candies at any time! \nTaffies are available in many flavors and colors. The most popular are fruit flavors\, like banana and lemon\, but actually anything can go. Even salt water! But the very first taffies were flavorless. Later molasses and vanilla were added to make candies better. That was the beginning of experiments with different flavors. Color experiments began much later and they were designated to match the flavor of the candies. One may think\, that chili taffy is the most unusual one\, but we disagree. Salt water taffy is the most interesting candy. Contrary to popular belief\, saltwater taffy isn’t made with saltwater\, but really contains water and salt. \nThere are many rumors on that how they were created. The most popular legend says\, that a candy store was flooded during the storm\, and the candies soaked in saltwater. When a little girl came to buy a taffy\, the owner said\, that she could offer her only salt water taffy. Little girl was delighted with it and bought one. She brought the candy to show her friends. Mother of shop owner heard the conversation and loved the name of the candy. That is how salt water taffy was born. \nChose your favorite taffies to celebrate the holiday and share them with your family and friends.

SUMMARY:National Epilepsy Week 2023
DESCRIPTION:From May 24 to May 30\, National Epilepsy Week will be taking place to raise awareness for those affected by epilepsy\, what epilepsy is\, who’s affected and what can be done to help those who suffer from this condition. \nWhat is epilepsy? \nEpilepsy is a neurological condition that affects the brain and causes recurring seizures or fits in people. Due to an uncontrolled increase of excess electrical activity in the brain interfering with the normal functions\, this causes a short interruption to the relay of messages in the brain. \nWho’s affected? \nApproximately 500\,000 people in the England are diagnosed with epilepsy\, affecting people of all ages\, from newborns to the elderly. \nWhat can be done to help? \nLearning to recognise the symptoms of a seizure is a great place to start helping those affected\, as well as knowing what to do when a seizure occurs to minimise the harm done to both the person and those around them. You can also look into lobbying for more support for those affected by epilepsy\, so they can get the treatment and care they deserve. \nAll in all\, epilepsy is a condition affecting more people than you might think\, and by knowing the early warning signs and what to do when a seizure occurs can make a big difference helping those affected by the chronic condition.

SUMMARY:World Goth Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:Whether you’re a full-blown cybergoth\, a J-goth\, gothabilly or anything in between\, World Goth Day is there to celebrate you. It started out as Goth Day in the UK in 2009\, but the following year\, organisers pushed it out to salute goths all around the world. \nIt was accidentally engineered by DJ Cruel Britannia\, who\, despite noting that goths tend to shy away from the limelight\, deserve a day to publicly embrace who they are. If you’ve gone to all that trouble to preserve what you believe is the ‘real you’\, he says\, don’t you think you owe it to yourself to shine for a day? \nWorld Goth Day celebrates the sub cultural aspects of the Goth subculture. Aspects of the culture like fashion\, music and art are celebrated by fashion shows\, art exhibitions and music performance. Many of the events feature local Goth bands\, and some have taken on a charity aspect with events in the UK and Australia supporting favoured charities like the UK Sophie Lancaster Foundation\, a charity that tries to curb prejudice and hatred against subcultures. \nThe event has evolved to be now celebrated by goths all around the world\, including the UK\, USA\, Canada\, Australia\, Singapore\, Brazil\, Mexico\, Spain\, Macendonia and South Africa.

SUMMARY:World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development 2023
DESCRIPTION:Three-quarters of the world’s major conflicts have a cultural dimension. Bridging the gap between cultures is urgent and necessary for peace\, stability and development. \nCultural diversity is a driving force of development\, not only with respect to economic growth\, but also as a means of leading a more fulfilling intellectual\, emotional\, moral and spiritual life. This is captured in the seven culture conventions\, which provide a solid basis for the promotion of cultural diversity. Cultural diversity is thus an asset that is indispensable for poverty reduction and the achievement of sustainable development. \nAt the same time\, acceptance and recognition of cultural diversity in particular through innovative use of media and Information and Communications Technologies (ICTs) are conducive to dialogue among civilizations and cultures\, respect and mutual understanding. \nIn 2001\, UNESCO adopted the Universal Declaration on Cultural Diversity and in December 2002\, the UN General Assembly\, in its resolution 57/249\, declared May 21 to be the World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development. \nThe day provides us with an opportunity to deepen our understanding of the values of cultural diversity and to advance the four goals of the UNESCO Convention on the Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions adopted on 20 October 2005: \nSupport sustainable systems of governance for culture \nAchieve a balanced flow of cultural goods and services and increase mobility of artists and cultural professionals \nIntegrate culture in sustainable development frameworks \nPromote human rights and fundamental freedoms

SUMMARY:Idling Awareness Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:What is Idling Awareness Day?\nIdling Awareness Day is a day created by vehicle technology specialist\, HH Driveright  to communicate the negative impacts associated with leaving a vehicle engine idling\, whether that is in standing traffic\, on a driveway\, or whilst stationary on the road for any other reason. \nHH Driveright hope that Idling Awareness Day will raise awareness of the totally unnecessary CO2 emissions generated and pushed out into the environment\, because of drivers leaving their engines idling when there is no need to do so. \nThe message behind Idling Awareness Day is that drivers taking the simple action of turning their engines off\, until ready to move again\, would help air quality\, particularly at key times\, such as when children are walking to or from school. \nThey also aim to show fleet and private drivers how the bad habit of idling is costing them far too much\, in terms of wasted fuel expenditure and how valuable savings could be made\, if drivers recognised that fact. \nHH Driveright hopes to plant the seed in drivers heads that ‘keeping on running’ is not the right thing to do. \nWhen is Idling Awareness Day?\nIdling Awareness Day 2023 will take place on the 17th May. \nHow to get involved in Idling Awareness Day 2023  \nMake a change.\nDrivers who regularly engage in engine idling are being asked to adopt a new habit and make a conscious effort to switch off their engines whilst stationary\, at those times when leaving the engine running is totally unnecessary. Making this small change in driving behaviour will contribute to a cleaner environment and better health and also help save money on fuel. \nFleet managers wanting to take steps to cut their CO2 emissions\, can also enquire about HH Driveright’s GM2020 technology\, which identifies when drivers are idling and also calculates CO2 emissions generated by their fleet.

It’s certainly an odd get-together\, but one that may be taking advantage of a shift in trends that may force people to abandon the venture of handwriting altogether. \nIn a world where people like us are typing this on a keyboard instead of writing it by hand\, it might be quite a good initiative; for all we know\, handwriting may be a trade as dead as lamp-lighting\, town crying or door-to-door sales. So\, get your Staedtler Noris school pencils\, your Helix 30cm rulers and your Bic for Her range of comfortable\, female-friendly medium ballpoint pens\, and go wild for a week.

SUMMARY:Coeliac UK's Awareness Week 2023
DESCRIPTION:What is Coeliac Awareness Week?\nRunning from 15 – 21st May\, Awareness Week 2023 is about creating new opportunities for earlier diagnosis of coeliac disease in children. \nThe impact of undiagnosed coeliac disease on children is huge. By highlighting the main symptoms of coeliac disease in children\, we hope to empower parents to take action\, so that we can find the half a million people living with undiagnosed coeliac disease in the UK. \nWe’re urging parents who recognise symptoms in their child to take our online assessment\, which will provide them with a result that they can take to their GP\, and use to talk about getting their child tested for coeliac disease. \nWith your support\, we can put more children on the path to diagnosis and a happy\, healthy life. We’re developing an Awareness Week pack to give children\, parents\, teachers\, leaders and anyone who wants to help the tools to get involved. \nRegister for your Awareness Week 2023 pack \nIf you’d like to receive an Awareness Week pack\, you can register your interest here. We’ll send you an update when it’s time to send them out.

SUMMARY:World Salt Awareness Week 2023
DESCRIPTION:Salt Awareness Week will take place slightly later from the 15th – 21st May in 2023. \nEach year Action on Salt organise a national ‘Salt Awareness Week’ and an international ‘World Salt Awareness Week’ to help raise awareness of the damaging effect of too much salt to our health. \nThe annual campaign is our chance to talk directly to the general public\, shining a light on the hidden salt in our favourite food products and encouraging those who don’t want their food\, and their children’s food\, laden with unnecessary salt to take action. We produce posters\, leaflets and factsheets\, which are then made available for order by hospitals\, GP surgeries\, health charities\, schools\, universities and anyone with an interest in salt\, food or health! These resources are intended for local community events during the week\, or for display year round in pharmacies and GP surgeries\, helping our salt reduction messages reach a wide range of people. Last year there were more than 300 supporting events up and down the country. \nFor many years\, our annual Salt Awareness Week campaign has been scheduled according to the UK policy calendar in March. We’re pleased to announce that the campaign will now take place in the third week of May – every year! \nThis new and consistent date allows supporters in the UK and internationally to plan their own activities to mark the awareness week ahead of time.  We look forward to working with you to get salt reduction onto the global agenda\, stay tuned for more information on the theme and resources for the week. \nHeart attacks and strokes are the biggest causes of death and disability in the UK\, with two people suffering from these often-debilitating conditions every 5 minutes. The strain this is having\, not only on the individual and their families\, but on our struggling NHS cannot be ignored.   \nMost cases are entirely preventable\, and so it’s vital we all take measures to improve our health and prevent these events from happening in the first place. It’s a little-known fact that eating less salt is one of the quickest and most effective ways of improving our health\, with just 1 less ‘pinch’ a day preventing over 4\,000 heart attacks and strokes every year in the UK. But how can we cut back on our salt\, when everything we buy is full of it?   \nFrom sliced bread to biscuits\, Friday night takeaways to ‘healthy’ salads\, everything has added salt. In fact\, three quarters of the salt we eat is already in the foods we buy\, and it’s impossible to take it out once it’s been added in.   \nJoin us as we call on food companies to Ditch the Salt for the sake of our hearts  \nIf you would like to be involved this year\, whether you are a food business\, a charity\, a community organisation\, a politician\, a school\, or a libertarian think tank\, we would love to hear from you!  \nPlease get in touch: cash@qmul.ac.uk   \nSupport our campaign and join the conversation on Twitter: #SaltAwarenessWeek

SUMMARY:Water Saving Week 2023
DESCRIPTION:The UK has less available water per person than most other European countries. London is drier than Istanbul\, and the South East of England has less water available per person than some African countries. \nSurprised? Climate change\, population increases and changes in lifestyle have led to increasing pressure being put on our water supplies. The expected increase in world population up to 10 billion people will decline the available freshwater resources by half in 2050. \nAs a result\, it is more important than ever that we take care with how we use water. Taking positive action now can help to ensure that there is enough water to go around\, for us\, for businesses and for the environment. \nSave Money \nSaving water saves money. Installing simple devices such as water-efficient taps and showers will save both water and energy by minimising the use of heated water. An efficient showerhead could reduce household bills by up to £120 per year. Leaky loos waste around 400 litres of clean water a day – the equivalent of having an extra two people living in your house! \nClimate Change \nOur use of water and energy are closely linked. Operational emissions from the water industry account for nearly 1% of the UK’s total. And a major source of emissions is from using hot water within homes. Reducing the length of your shower or the amount of hot water you use for cleaning dishes therefore has a significant impact on your personal carbon footprint. Using water wisely also helps us adapt to climate change – it means the water we do have goes further. \nThe Environment \nUsing water efficiently means that we can minimise the amount of additional water resources being taken out of our rivers and aquifers\, especially as demand is rising. \nResilient Water Supplies \nAs water resources become scarcer\, building new infrastructure like reservoirs and desalination plants\, or finding new sources of supply\, becomes increasingly expensive. If we save water that is otherwise wasted\, we can reduce pressure on existing infrastructure and offset the need for more. Using water wisely also makes our supply more resilient against impacts from climate change\, such as droughts. \nReady to start saving?
