What is Mothering Sunday?

Mothering Sunday is a UK tradition celebrated on the fourth Sunday of Lent. Originally a day for people to return to their 'mother church', it evolved into a celebration of mothers and is distinct from the American Mother's Day tradition.

How to celebrate

Mark the day with a poster made in Dayfeed — pick your favourite photo as the background, share it to your story or group chat, and set a reminder so you never miss it next year.
