What a wonderful weekend!
| | Hi Roger
Millions across the UK came together for cuppas with neighbours, garden get-togethers, street parties and community events over The Big Lunch weekend, 1-2 June.
We hope you had a fantastic time and there’s still time to join in, with a Big Lunch anytime in June!
So many communities helped to make it the greenest Big Lunch yet, with people and planet-friendly events. In Belfast, a primary school held a Big Lunch to officially open their pollinator garden, whilst an allotment group in Tamworth prepared for months by growing their own veggies!
As usual, many events supported good causes. In the small village of Burn, a local lorry driver collected donations at their event for his 13th trip to deliver essential supplies to Ukraine.
It was a wonderful weekend and we’re loving all the stories and photos, so please keep them coming!
