Back by popular demand, on Sunday, 9 June 2024, we are hosting an interfaith picnic and gathering for Great Big Green Week.
Last year we collaborated with St John’s Waterloo and the Brahma Kumari to host a family-friendly interfaith event that included an outdoor picnic and an Eco Festival. After the success of this event, we’re hosting a bigger one this year to kick off the Great Big Green Week.

About the Great Big Green Week
The #GreatBigGreenWeek is the UK’s biggest ever celebration of action to tackle climate change and protect nature. Between 8 and 16 June, communities, schools, businesses, and faith communities will join together in a wave of support for action to protect the planet.
By taking action together at the same time in every corner of the country, politicians will be unable to ignore that their constituents care about tackling climate change and protecting nature.
The Great Big Green Week will show that people across the UK are making swaps every day to help create a better tomorrow – and now we urgently need politicians to step up and play their part.
