Month of Community
The Month of Community is a time to come together to celebrate everything that makes our communities great.
Millions of people took part in June 2022, to cheers volunteers, connect with their neighbours, welcome refugees, support carers, raise awareness of loneliness, or simply to say thank you.

How to get involved
Across all our Month of Community partners, there’s so much to get involved with during June!
Discover community events and celebrations across the UK as well as opportunities to support a variety of charities and causes.
Say Hello with John Bishop
“It feels to me like the days of saying hello to strangers in the street, on a bus, or at the park have sadly pretty much become a thing of the past.
Most of us have spent too much time on our own over the past two years or so and now is the moment to get back out there and make connections with people young and old, near or far. The Say Hello campaign is all about making it that little bit easier to just, well… Say Hello.“
