Here are the important December dates for your calendar
December’s just around the corner, the month of twinkly lights, festive smells, and a perfectly good excuse to eat one too many mince pies.
It’s a busy one, with the usual festive chaos, but don’t forget Small Business Saturday on the 6th – an ideal time to show some love to your favourite indies. And on the 21st we have the Winter Solstice, the longest night of the year giving us a very welcome excuse to linger in our PJ's a little longer.
Here are a few key December dates to help you plan your social content (or simply stay afloat in the seasonal madness).
💚 This month is:
- Small Business Saturday (UK)
- Winter Solstice (N.Hemisphere)
- New Years' Eve, Hogmanay (SCT)
- Universal Human Rights Month
