Tell us what you're up to

Is yours going to be the biggest Big Lunch? Is it going to be unusual in any way or happen in a strange place? Have you got a street band, some budding artists or exotic recipes? Have you got an especially friendly street or are you trying to plan a Lunch on a street where no one speaks to their neighbours?

We're on the lookout for Big Lunch stories to use in the media to really raise awareness of The Big Lunch, so if you've got an interesting story to tell we'd love to hear from you. Contact the Big Lunch team on 020 7636 8152, info@thebiglunch.com or through one of our groups below.

  1. 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

  2. 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
