There was food and fun galore, Hawaiian and Jamaican ocean and beach- themed event, with hanging decorations and sea creature fruit art creations.
There was also summer safety advice on taking care in the sun for the adults and children who gathered for the colourful event.
As well as attractions and beach themed art sessions, there was dance lessons and colour changing watches and beaded bracelets for the boys and girls which alert them when the sun is most dangerous and everything on offer proved a huge hit.
Speaking ahead of the event, Habinteg Housing support officer Margaret Cunningham, who organises The Big Lunch each year, said: “Last year was a great event when we had ‘Away With the Fairies’ as our theme with over 100 people there.
"This year we have a lot of things planned to make sure it is a great event. We are working with Cancer Focus and will be delivering the summer safety message in a fun, creative way.”
Well done to Margaret and everyone involved for delivering what has been another brilliant Big Lunch to remember for local people.
