International Left Handers Day

International Left Handers Day takes place on the 13th of August each year. This special day celebrates the uniqueness and differences of left-handed individuals, who make up approximately 10% of the world’s population. It is an opportunity to raise awareness about the challenges left-handers face in a predominantly right-handed world and to promote the advantages and creativity often associated with being left-handed.

International Left Handers Day was first observed in 1976 by Dean R. Campbell, founder of the Left-Handers Club. Since then, it has grown in popularity, with events and activities organised worldwide to celebrate left-handers. The day aims to foster a sense of community among left-handed people and to educate others about the need for left-handed friendly designs in tools, instruments, and everyday objects.

These may include left-handed trivia quizzes, left-handed sports challenges, and discussions about the experiences of left-handed individuals. It’s also a great opportunity to highlight famous left-handed people and their contributions to society.
