Care Day
What is CARE DAY?
CARE DAY is the world’s biggest celebration of children and young people with care experience. This group includes children and young people who are or were cared for by foster carers, or other family members, and those who live in children’s homes. They deserve to be celebrated, on CARE DAY, and every day.
CARE DAY takes place on the third Friday of February, every year. |
Care Day 26 - Friday 20 February
We are delighted to announce our annual CARE DAY will take place on Friday 20 February 2026.
Care Day provides us a special day each year for children and young people with lived experience of care. We are working on the full schedule of activities and events for the celebration.
Care Day is all about celebrating and connecting young people with lived experience of care. This year, we want to recognise care experienced young people who have had a significant achievement, or who have made a contribution to their community.
Nominations are now open, and winners will be announced on Care Day, Friday 20 February. For all the info, and to nominate someone for a Care Day Award, click here.
