Big Lunch Day

June 3, 2012

Author: Trudi Holden

The sun is shining in places and the heavens have opened in others, but we hope you all have a great time at your Big Lunches whatever the weather.

We’d love to know all about your day – how it went, how you felt, any little anecdotes or special moments and how you feel about your community after The Big Lunch. Please take a couple of minutes to get in touch and share your story with us this year. There are lots of ways to do this, read our earlier blog for the ‘how to’. Tell us how your day was today- tweet us your best bits and your photos #bigjubileelunch

If you do send in your story and a photo or two (with permission for us to use them) along with your postal address, we will send you a Big Lunch t-shirt as a souvenir. (The small print – We have a very limited number left so it will be on a first come first served basis and unfortunately we aren’t able to guarantee sizes.)

Here’s a little round up of some great Big Lunches taking place across the four corners of the UK this weekend:

Cress Big Lunch Heaton

In Scotland, Kirkcudbright are holding a Big Jubilee Lunch in the harbour including puppets, a magician, street theatre and climbing wall, and Perth’s Big Lunch will include a Guinness World Record Kilt Run attempt.

In Northern Ireland, bring a tin and a picnic for the Jordanstown Loughshore Big Lunch or head to Bangor for a weekend of free family entertainment

In Wales, join the Marine Lake Big Jubilee Lunch or pop to Merlin’s Bridge for their Big Jubilee Lunch celebrations.

From Preston in the North, London Piccadilly and Greenwich in the South and Birmingham in the middle, Big Lunches are happening across the whole of England too.
