Comic Relief Day 20th March

Comic relief was started in 1985 by screenwriter Richard Curtis, comedian Lenny Henry and charity worker Jane Tewson. They were raising money for the relief efforts in Ethiopia and Sudan that had been hit by a devastating famine. The idea was that comedy could make people donate and raise awareness of poverty in the UK and Africa.
Over 30 million people tuned in to watch the Red Nose Day in 1988. A core principle was established early on is that all the money donated by the public goes directly to projects while operating costs are covered by corporate sponsors.
Comic relief believes that laughter can bring the great British public together and help change lives. The vision of a Just World Free from Poverty. The key issues are Basic Needs, a Safe Place to Call Home, Best Start in Life, Safe From Harm and Justice For All.
Comic relief has changed 100 million lives.
This Red Nose Day Take Yourself Funny for Money to raise money.

Mothering Sunday 15th March

Mothering Sunday originated in 16th Century Britain as a Christian tradition. It was held mid lent which is the fourth Sunday of Lent.
People would go to their “mother” church, the church where the person was baptised. By the 17th Century it became a day for domestic servants and apprentices to visit their families.
A lady called Constance Penswick-Smith created the Mothering Sunday Movement in the UK and wrote a book in 1921 asking for a renewal of the festival.

As flowers are the symbol of spring the idea of giving your mother flowers is thought to have come from that idea.
To celebrate Mother’s Day you could visit your local church. You can give the mother figure in your life flowers or bake a Simnel cake made with dried fruits and a marzipan topping. Spend the time with family and celebrate the mother in your life.

World Glaucoma Week

World Glaucoma week is observed from March 8th to the 14th 2026. It is a time to get communities, clinicians, and individuals worldwide to detect glaucoma early, treat it promptly, and eliminate preventable blindness.
The theme for this year is Uniting for a Glaucoma-Free World. Glaucoma Research Foundation reports that roughly half of all people with glaucoma worldwide remain undiagnosed.
Glaucoma is a eye condition where the main nerve, which connects the eye to the brain, becomes damaged. It’s most common in adults aged 50 and over and can cause vision loss if its not diagnosed and treated early. (NHS).
A sudden onset of glaucoma can occur with some of the following symptoms, intense pain, red eye, tenderness around the eyes, seeing rainbow-coloured circles around bright lights, blurred vision, feeling sick and headaches.
According to the NHS website everyone should have regular eye tests, at least every 2 years. If you are at a higher risk of glaucoma, for example a brother, or sister, or parent have it, you may be advised to have eye tests more often.
There is no cure but treatments that can help. For more information go to

Charles Cruft founded the first Crufts in 1891 in Islington, London. It originally featured 2,500 dogs.
The first Best in Show when introduced in 1928 was won by a Greyhound called Primeley Sceptre.

National Bed Month

Sleep is vital for physical repair, cognitive function, and emotional regulation, acting as essential maintenance for the body and mind. It strengthens the immune system, consolidates memory, clears toxins from the brain, and reduces the risk of chronic diseases. Adults need 7-9 hrs for optimal health. (NHS).
From March 1st to 30th March, it’s national bed month. There is nothing better than getting into bed after a long day and relaxing. Some people can sleep as soon as their head touches the pillow, others take longer. But a good night’s sleep is crucial to our overall health and well-being.
This month is a time where, manufacturers, retailers and health professionals come together to inform the public about the latest innovations in bed design and the science of sleep.
March has many events to emphasize the importance of sleep. You can get involved by maybe looking at your own bed. Is it time to get that new mattress? Share sleep tips with family and friends. You can visit bed exhibitions to see what could be your next bed. Go to workshops that help to optimize your bedtime routine.
