#2 Fun * Fair

We are a community. Are you? A perfect opening line for a community gathering, a fair of summer shares, fun for all the family. Significant point to raise because in terms of community spirit, I've never been anywhere that has had a summer street party, let alone a street party with as much community spirit as little old Pitshanger Lane. Sorry Brightonians! Since moving to Ealing I've been constantly surprised by charity events, get togethers and people supporting everyone rather than trying to make it all themselves. The event on Sunday 18th June 2017 coordinated by one of the residents of Summerfield Road, Laina, was testament to her character. She's a smiley face that says hello to everyone, that supports local campaigns, Laina is someone that waters the trees on the pavement in our street! This event was a national initiative so that Jo Cox could be remembered by communities up and down England. Events set up so that normal, everyday people would make picnics and invite the neighbours. The event was dubbed with the quote, hashtag and heading "More in common". Jo Cox has left her memory in times of such political heat. Murdered on 16th June 2016, her birthday would have been the 22nd. Having an opportunity to do something which was testament to her character hopefully means that from a tragic, horrific event, several more people could be friends, tens of people might start thinking outside their own life, hundreds of people may start behaving differently and thousands of people can have a positive effect on thousands of others. Tables and bunting at the ready, paddling pool for the kids and a couple of pets chucked in for good measure. Endless amounts of burgers and hot dogs, with neighbours bringing dishes. It was a party that you and your friends would have been proud of. There was an air of nervousness that was broken, similar to the crushed ice in the Pimms, with quick introductions, and the sharing of a platter. Broken bread and wine, baps and beers, lollies and lemonade. I met people that lived in close proximity that I had never spoken to before, that I think I may have seen putting the rubbish out or parking the car, people that I had lots in common with. I chatted about work, and football whilst sharing cheesecake that I made for the occasion. Frankie put face paint on the locals, I played fetch with their dogs. The local tennis club caught wind of it and came to bring lollies for the kids who ran sound non-stop for several hours no doubt using a constant top up of sugar to keep them going. Twas a lovely touch on an event full of the like. When the world is full of places where we can avoid talking to strangers, like on the tube or in a queue, at the automatic tills, it is very reassuring to find that "We are far more united and have far more in common with each other than things that divide us."

Day 101: A year ago we lost the utterly wonderful Jo Cox. A newly elected female labour MP, impassioned by social injustice who no doubt was going to shape the country into a fairer, more compassionate era. What her loved ones lost was a caring mother, wife and friend and in her honour they have set up the Jo Cox Foundation. In an act that was meant to silence her message of unity, peace and togetherness, we are urged by them to retaliate not with more hate, division or anger but by uniting in her honour and keeping up her fight for social justice and campaigning for the most vulnerable in our society and world. This weekend the foundation have planned ‘the great get together’, inviting communities to gather and share what they hold in common. They say "Jo’s killing was designed to divide us and we can think of no better response than an anniversary that brings us closer together to celebrate all that we have in common.’ Read about it and how you can get involved here http://bit.ly/2sDhXLM via our blog in the bio #jocox #thegreatgettogether #forthemanynotthefew
