It’s April and Spring is most definitely here. Is it time to have a spring clean of your content and start to post quality content consistently?
Here’s some ideas and inspiration to help you.
April is National Pet Month. A whole month to celebrate and raise awareness of responsible pet ownership.
Here’s a gorgeous pic of Dennis drawn for me by Beth at Doodlebot – I love it so much and expect to see it on my socials this month.
April is also Stress Awareness Month run by the Stress Management Society. They are returning with their 30-Day Challenge, encouraging people to pick one action each day to help with your Physical, Mental, and Emotional Well-being. In case you hadn’t noticed – mine is swimming.
🐣 Easter Monday will be 06/04/2026 🐣
Sometimes the purpose of an awareness day is to generate interest in a particular business sector or activity. Record Store Day will be 18/04/2026. What was the first album you ever bought? Was it a record, cassette or CD, or are you really cool and was it a download?! Can you guess mine?
