History: Mother's Day in the UK, also known as Mothering Sunday, has a different origin than the American Mother's Day. It is rooted in the Christian tradition dating back to the 16th century when people would return to their 'mother church' – the main church or cathedral in their area – for a service on the fourth Sunday of Lent. Over time, this practice transformed into a more secular holiday, where children would present their mothers with flowers and other tokens of appreciation.
Date: The celebration is not fixed to a specific date as it is based on the liturgical calendar. It occurs three weeks before Easter Sunday on the fourth Sunday of Lent.
