As the Magazine went to print a number of events or activities were being planned to celebrate the Coronation of His Majesty The King.

If you are planning an event you can add the details to the official Coronation website.

The events will be added to the interactive map and events listing, which will be promoted in the weeks leading up to the Coronation.

This year the annual Big Lunch initiative will take place over the May Bank Holiday on 6–8 May, in celebration of the Coronation.

Those that cannot take part in May are invited to join the fun in June, with a Big Lunch to bring their community together and support great causes, as part of the Month of Community.
