Community United are bringing the Big Lunch to West Berkshire!
Partner With Them
The Big Lunch is the UK’s annual get-together for neighbours and communities, with millions of people coming together for a few hours of friendship, food and fun. It’s a great way to get to know each other better, have a good time and celebrate where you live.Â
The Big Lunch
The Big Lunch 2026 will take place from Friday 5 to Monday 8 June, giving you four days to join in – in whatever way suits you!
Whether you’re an individual, community group, council, school, organisation or business – taking part is fun, easy and for everyone!
The Big Lunch isn’t just a great way to bring communities together – it’s also a smart move for councils, housing associations, organisations and businesses.
By bringing people together and giving them an opportunity to connect, The Big Lunch can help your organisation achieve brilliant things – with benefits such as an increased sense of belonging and engagement and reduced social isolation.
Bringing people together to share friendship, food and fun isn’t just a lovely thing to do. It’s a chance to share cultures, experiences, stories, ideas and skills – helping us all find common ground, grow connections and feel a greater sense of belonging where we live.
People have Big Lunches for lots of different reasons – to say thanks, support a meaningful cause, start a new idea or simply have a bit of fun!
Plus, Big Lunches are a great way to fundraise for causes that matter in your community and encourage people to do more locally – from setting up new initiatives to planning events and volunteering.
Doing wonders for community spirit!
People are the key ingredient of any Big Lunch and we all have something to share – from yummy cakes and pots of tea to music, laughter and bunting!
