Happy Birthday JKR, you brave, cool, creative woman!
Thank you for turning so many kids into readers; and thank you for speaking common sense when no one else would. Long may you reign. 🎂🥂🎉

Happy Birthday Jo, you're an inspiration, thank you for standing up for those who are vulnerable and scared and can't stand up for themselves. You're a complete heroine.

I got this reply from Lumos - I told them about our planned 'Happy Birthday' donations:
Hi Marie,
Thank you so much for letting us know about these incoming donations, a wonderful way to mark the birthday of our Founder and Life President.

Because of donors like the Mumsnet community, we're able to keep advocating for children’s rights to push for real, lasting change. We’re so grateful to have you by our side.

Those who have donated will receive an acknowledgement email on behalf of everyone at Lumos.

With deep gratitude,
Hazel

I told Lumos fundraising that a donation from any of us carries the good wishes of all of us, as I know not everyone has the spare cash to make a donation.

Hope you had a wonderful day Queen. 🎂

It's not just JKR's birthday, according to Sex Matters,
Happy birthday too to JK Rowling, and to Maya, Helen, Fiona and Emma Moore, all of whom also celebrate their birthdays in July.
What a coincidence! Maybe we should declare July 'GC Pride Month'😁

Happy birthday to Maya, Helen, Fiona and Emma too🍾🎂 Smile.

Handelgently · 01/08/2025 20:18

Hope all you amazing ladies had wonderful birthdays!

NumberTheory · 02/08/2025 02:31

I'm a little late to the party but want to add my congratulations and best wishes! Thank you JKR (and Maya, Helen, Fiona and Emma too!). The UK would be looking grimmer for women without you.
