Month of Community
The Month of Community is a time to come together to celebrate everything that makes our communities great.
Millions of people take part every June to cheers volunteers, connect with their neighbours, welcome refugees, support carers, raise awareness of loneliness or simply to say thank you.
Our amazing partners are running events and initiatives all throughout June – there’s something for everyone to join in with!
