The Big Lunch, which is funded by the Big Lottery Fund and led by the Eden Project, encourages people across the UK to have lunch with their neighbours once a year, for a few hours of community, friendship and fun.

The simple act of chatting to neighbours can make a real difference in communities and can help tackle isolation say organisers behind the initiative.
