National Numeracy Day was on Wednesday 22nd May 2024. National Numeracy launched National Numeracy Day with KPMG as Founding Supporter in 2018. It’s now an award-winning campaign that has grown bigger every year.
National Numeracy’s aim is to:
“empower children and adults in the UK to get on with numbers so they can fulfil their potential at work, home and school.”

There are also talks and recorders on these number natters:
