Sunday 14th May 2023 was National Children’s Day. This day is all about the importance of a healthy childhood, as well as the need to protect children and young people, and their rights and freedoms.
According to National Children’s Day UK, not only is it a day of celebration, but also “a great opportunity for everyone who cares about child and family wellbeing to shout out about what they are doing”. It’s a day to raise awareness and funds for the projects they are running or the things young people care about.
