Mother's Day

 

British Mother's Day is TODAY on Sunday, March 14 2021.

 

Known by its religious name, Mothering Sunday, it has become more commercialised over the years.

In the UK, the date is linked to Easter, which is different each year as it is determined by the lunar calendar.

 

The UK's Mother's Day always falls on the fourth Sunday during the period of Lent, when people typically give up things like certain foods or bad habits for the days leading up to Easter.
