International Women’s Day 2024
The campaign theme for International Women’s Day 2024 is Inspire Inclusion.
When we inspire others to understand and value women’s inclusion, we forge a better world.
And when women themselves are inspired to be included, there’s a sense of belonging, relevance, and empowerment.
Collectively, let’s forge a more inclusive world for women. With well over a century of history and change, the first International Women’s Day (IWD) was held in March 1911. IWD isn’t country, group or organisation specific. It’s a day of collective global activism and celebration that belongs to all those committed to forging women’s equality.
World Sleep Day
World Sleep Day will be observed on 15 March 2024.
World Sleep Day is an annual observance held across the globe every year to highlight the significance of good quality sleep for the overall well-being of an individual.
It is observed on the Friday before the Spring Equinox every year and encourages us to prioritise rest and recognise the impact of sleep on our everyday lives.
Quality sleep is important for the utmost physical, emotional, and mental well-being. It helps the body to rejuvenate and recover, enhancing cognitive function and strengthening the immune system.
However, amidst the hustle and bustle of today’s world, many people forget the significance of rest, which leads to sleep disorders and health-related issues.
The Community Engagement Team are providing a well being taster session on “Sleep Management” on Thursday, 14 March at our meeting at Cross Street Chapel from 2.00pm.
