On Sunday 4 July 2021 the country is coming together to celebrate ‘Thank You Day’, a new national day of recognition to mark the Covid-19 pandemic.
Starting from just 13 individuals proposing a Thank You Day, the idea is now supported by hundreds of organisations across the country, ranging from the Scouts and Guides to Rotary and the Royal Voluntary Service, the NHS, the Football Association and the Church of England. It’s got the backing of celebrities, religious leaders and sports stars, local councils and schools, businesses and communities throughout the UK.
The aim is for as many people as possible to be involved, however they would like, so everyone who deserves it gets a thank you – and the whole of the UK gets together. There isn’t a strict plan for the day (the idea is to say thank you however you want!) but people are already organising lots of activities which we can all join in with and support.
To find out more, take part in one of the activities or plan your own visit the Thank You Day website.
