Hide AdA spokesperson said: “Every year, Thank You Day brings together millions of people across the UK to celebrate and give thanks to those that go above and beyond for us. It is an opportunity to thank the people on your street, in your block of flats and all those local legends; the volunteers, teachers, carers who go the extra mile for us.
“This year, Thank You Day is back with a twist – supporting communities to takeover their spaces and places to say ‘thank you’ to local legends and unsung heroes.”
This campaign is organised by The Together Coalition which saw more than 1.3million people organising an activity last year.
The event will be held from 12pm-2pm at the Green Man, Church End, Eversholt. Click here for more information on how to get involved.
