The Big Lunch

Posted on DateJune 21, 2009 by AuthorAlly

The Big Lunch aims to encourage as many streets and neighbourhoods to organise a local get together or street party on the same day - July the 19th. More info on why available at www.thebiglunch.com

Greener Leith is in favour of anything that gets neighbours talking to each other more. We would organise a local event, but it seems that we're all on holiday then. However, we'd love to hear if anyone else is planning to organise a Big Lunch event in Leith. In the meantime, here's the TV ad:

Saw you were writing about the Big Lunch and thought you might be interested in a competition we’re running ahead of the day itself. I am from Raindance, the organisation that promotes independent film and runs the Raindance Film Festival -- we’re inviting people to make a film about the Big Lunch and offering two £1000 prizes for the best. There’s still time to enter the competition if it’s of interest. Full details are at http://raindance.tv/thebiglunch

It's interesting to see Knowsley promoting the 'Big Lunch' and what seems to be a notion of good neighbourliness based on drinking lots and lots of tea! http://www.knowsley.gov.uk/residents/good-neighbours.aspx

Due to unprecedented demand to enter The Big Lunch Short Film Competition, some filmmakers have been requesting a bit more time to complete their films. We’re pleased to announce that we can extend the competition deadline until midnight Sunday 5 July. Competition details at http://raindance.tv/thebiglunch
