The Big Lunch is your chance to celebrate community connections and get to know one another a little better. The big date is 5-6 June – join in online, on your doorstep or over the fence. It’s on.

It might be a little different again, but this year there are more reasons than ever to get together for community, friendship and fun. Sign up for your free Big Lunch pack full of tips and ideas on hosting your own event (in whatever way you want to do it) and let's have something to look forward to.
