Busy Bristol residents can get to know neighbours on Big Lunch day

Bristol residents are just too busy to bother getting to know their neighbour, according to a national initiative to get people together with the nutters next door.

According to research from The Big Lunch, Bristol came in eighth place out of ten cities who didn’t have time to talk to people who lived next to them.

The Big Lunch, led by the Eden Project, is aiming to get as many people as possible to meet up with the neighbours in their community and sit down for lunch on Sunday 18 July.

Last year, around one million people across the UK took part in the event.
