Rejected 11 signatures

What the petition asks

Due to the current climate regarding coronavirus. Families will not be celebrating to together to traditionally love and adore their Mother's more than normal for one day.
So I propose that Mothering in the UK to be postponed until Sunday 15th November. A date we can look forward to.
Something to look forward to as families and for the economy. Especially hospitality

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

The Government is not responsible for setting the date of Mothering Sunday.
