About The Big Help Out & Thank You Day
In 2024, The Big Help Out returned and aligned with Volunteers’ Week from Friday 7th to Sunday 9th June. During this weekend around 6.5 million people took part in The Big Help Out! Together, we made a huge impact on communities, businesses, and organisations nationwide.
The Big Help Out was born out of a simple idea: to inspire everyone to get involved and make a difference in their communities. Since its inception in 2023 as part of the King’s Coronation, we’ve grown into a nationwide movement that has brought millions together in the spirit of helping others.
The Big Help Out will be back in 2025 – join us as we continue to grow and make an even bigger impact in 2025 and beyond. Click here to register now to be the first to hear about it later this year. This is not a profit making or fundraising initiative.
This website is hosted by the /together initiative in support of The Big Help Out. You can find out more about the /together initiative here.

We know that the more touch-in points we can have with communities, the more likely they are to continue engaging in community activity.
Therefore, 1 month after The Big Help Out we invited everyone to take part in Thank You Day to say a great big Thank You to all the volunteers that took part in The Big Help Out!
In its fourth year, it’s a day dedicated to connecting with each other over gratitude by saying a great big Thank You to people like volunteers, and local legends who make our communities great!
Who’s behind these two campaigns?
The /together coalition – a coalition of hundreds of organisations across the UK, committed to building kinder, closer, and more connected communities.
Whilst both campaigns have a unique focus, they share a single vision:
To bring communities together.
