Join us for our annual celebration of community and connection in North Kensington.

Portobello Green

The Great Get Together, a national movement set-up in memory of murdered Jo Cox MP, promotes her belief that we have far more in common than that which divides us. It’s a message that resonates strongly with the work that we do at our charity, Nova. For our local community in North Kensington, the Great Get Together is extra poignant, falling each year just after the anniversary of the fire at Grenfell Tower, just up the road.Our annual Great Get Together brings people together, to not only commemorate those tragic events, but also to celebrate the power of connection and togetherness to heal and strengthen our society. This year, we&#x27;re delighted to also mark Nova’s 40th anniversary - with Grenfell, always in our hearts, reflected in the customary green-coloured design.So, why not pop-along and join us on the 24th June on Portobello Green – a hop and a skip from Ladbroke Grove tube station. There’ll be fun activities for the young and not so young, and a spot of food &amp; drink to keep the festive feeling. Everything is free and we’d love to see you!Huge thanks to The National Lottery Community Fund and Westway Trust for their generous sponsorship of this year&#x27;s event.Please note:*** This event is open to the general public.
