Awareness days in 2025 for UK creative businesses

Are you aware of awareness days?

There's an awareness day for everything - whether it's odd socks or orange juice, shrimps or squirrels. We all know its Valentine's Day on 14th February and St George's Day on 23rd April, but, for example, did you know about World Art Day on 15th April?

Having said this, they're not all going to be useful for your social media marketing. It's important to sift through the ones that aren't going to be useful for your business or aren't relevant to your country - make sure that the awareness day is British or international.

This may all feel a bit overwhelming, but never fear - Steph is here!
