The Eden Project Communities: Youth Got Community Spirit Competition
Overview
Many young people are passionate about doing their bit to help make a difference — from reducing loneliness to helping stop climate change — and here in Northern Ireland we know that we’re better equipped to tackle challenges when we face them together.
The Big Lunch (an Eden Project Communities initiative funded by the National Lottery) is the perfect way to start good conversations where you live and this year thanks to support from Belfast Harbour they are running this competition to motivate intergenerational activity and will announce the winners on Big Lunch day encouraging ongoing community spirited activity.
If you’re aged 8–18, this exciting competition not only celebrates community spirit but gives you, community groups and organisations an opportunity to win awesome prizes that will help you bring people together for fun, food and friendship as part of this year’s Big Lunch.
As part of the competition, winners will then host a simple get-together in their community on the weekend of 16–18 June to bring people together locally, using the opportunity to share plans.

What can you win?
