Love Life Live Lent is based on a project developed by the Diocese of Birmingham and is now in its second year as a national project.

Last year's campaign was a massive success with adults and children all across the UK getting involved! It gained a wide and positive range of media coverage, including a feature in The Independent's Extra feature (Wed 21st February 2007):

“It will provide a religious take on an intriguing international trend. In recent years, in different corners of the globe, several movements have sprung up inviting followers to combat the selfishness of modern life by doing nice things to random strangers.”

“If you put your mind to it, carrying out acts of kindness can start as soon as you wake up. You can be kind to people in different parts of the country, or on the other side of the world, or even be kind to the planet itself, without leaving your home.”

This year we hope that Love Life Live Lent 2 will be even bigger as we launch a Facebook application and with all-new full-colour booklets with the theme of being good neighbours.

Love Life Live Lent 2 offers something exciting, different and refreshing to try during Lent - encouraging us again to take small actions that can have big effects.

So why don't you take some time out to be a good neighbour... and have fun this Lent?
