A fair was held in Praça da Amizade yesterday to mark the end of the government’s “2016 Happy Family Month”.
Starting from 2014, the Social Welfare Bureau (IAS), organiser of the one-day event, has designated the period between Mother’s Day and Father’s Day every year as “Happy Family Month” during which social service organisations and families organise and attend public activities and events to spread the message of family love.
Mother’s Day fell on May 8 this year. Father’s Day was yesterday.
