BACK

After three years of campaigning, today we finally have our day.

Published: 26/11/2025

Thank you to everyone who supported us — especially Survivors Against Terrorism, whose dedication helped make this possible.

The UK Government has confirmed a new National Day for Victims and Survivors of Terrorism, with the first event on 21 August 2026.

This follows years of work by victims, survivors, Survivors Against Terrorism, Smile For Joel, and many others calling for proper recognition and awareness.
