The Big Lunch 2010

LunchOn Friday 16th July UNACC held a "Big Lunch" here at the Waterside centre in partnership with Croydon Voluntary Action (CVA). See our News Page for a report and photos.
 
The Big Lunch is a one day get together with your neighbours and friends to get to know each other better—here are six great reasons to get involved:

  • The Big LunchTo stoke up community spirit – we call it Human Warming·
  • To make the third of us who live alone feel happier, closer and ... friendlier.
  • To show how local people can change a neighbourhood for good, forever.
  • To conquer our natural shyness, to open our curtains, doors and minds and look out for one another the way we used to.
  • To share stories, skills and tools, so we all end up richer in every sense.
  • To discover common ground across age, class, faith, race and the garden fence, and to remind ourselves that charity begins at home, or at most, a couple of doors away.

The Big Lunch is a fantastic day and an opportunity to get involved with the local community and get to know your neighbours—you never know who you might meet!
