## Summary

A Foreign Office calendar for 2026 lists 110 awareness days, weeks and months, including observances related to gender identity, sexuality, mental health and wellbeing. It includes Remembrance Day on 11 November but omits Remembrance Sunday, as well as D-Day and VE Day, prompting criticism from a Conservative shadow minister.

The calendar is marked “official” and includes four transgender observance days, two intersex days and 20 dates relating to mental health and neurodiverse conditions. It also lists Flexible Working Day, International Pronouns Day and the anniversary of George Floyd’s death. The article says the Cabinet Office recognised 21 awareness dates in 2025, compared with 25 at the Department for Education, 12 at the Home Office and none at the Wales Office; the Foreign Office said it has supported national remembrance commemorations for several decades.
