To mark the day, Welsh people around the world wear one or both of Wales's national emblems - a daffodil and a leek. Around the world, there will be celebrations of Welsh cuisine and culture to mark this day. 11th-20th British Science week- We’re excited to say that British Science Week 2022 is going ahead at full steam. It is a ten day celebration of science, technology, engineering and maths. To learn more or to download a brilliant activity pack please visit www.britishscienceweek.org 7th-13th National Feet Week. The aim of National Feet Week is to promote the importance of foot health to the general public. If you have a toothache, you’d visit the dentist, and if you had trouble with your eyesight you would visit an optician. But what about your feet? Many people ignore common foot complaints rather than going to see an expert. National Feet Week wants to raise awareness and spread the message to visit a podiatrist. National Feet Week happens every year and asks everyone to prioritise their foot health. See www.nationalfeetweek.org 18th Comic Relief 2022 - Its time to roll about on the floor in laughter as we watch stars from stage, screen and the world of celebrity perform whilst they fundraise to do good... a lot of good.
