What happened to the bag you lost at the airport or the pen you lost in your office last week?
If you have lost anything in the past or recently, then be sure to celebrate Official Lost and Found Day. This day encourages you to make an effort to find your lost items.
Losing things are part of life and if what people have lost may not seem important to them, they tend to stop looking for it after trying for a while.
Official Lost and Found Day started in 2012 to remind people not to give up on the things they have lost and to increase their efforts to find them.
It is on that day that we take a moment to recall the stuff we’ve lost and perhaps make an effort to find it.
You can celebrate this day by buying an item from a charity shop that may have been unwanted by someone. Or if you are prone to losing things, add name tags or set an alarm to help you not to forget your items when going out.
That way you may be less likely to forget or lose your items.
