The most important day of the year falls on the second Sunday of May (10 May 2026), when Mother’s Day is celebrated. With all due respect to grandmothers, grandfathers, dads, godparents and religious prophets, where would we be without our mums?

So this year, celebrate Mother’s Day properly instead of letting it pass by with a few small gestures.

And remember, the celebration doesn’t have to be just for your partner or biological mother. You can celebrate with anyone who represents that sense of love and care that defines a maternal figure in your life.
