About Streets Alive

Streets Alive promotes community spirit at the street level through street parties and other neighbourly activities. As a not-for-profit organisation since 2001 we have been helping community workers and councils to develop best practice in supporting communities.

Street parties are a great part of British culture and have a long history. We hope to make them a widespread and regular feature of communities throughout the UK. With busy, more independent and less localised lives we have fewer chances to bump into people. And a street party right outside your door without traffic for a day is a good way to meet them all at once.

This website is about simple neighbours' street parties in 1 or 2 quiet residential streets without general publicity. Larger community public events in more streets require other arrangements according to their scale.

See our organisation website www.streetsalive.org.uk about our other work on neighbourhood and city centre events, and car free days.

Streets Alive relies on donations and grants for most of our work as a not-for-profit group. Please donate whatever you can and let us know.

Thank you very much.
