Have fun in the sun with a purple picnic!
The sun is shining, the sky is blue and it’s not raining (for once!), it’s the perfect weather for a picnic!

2. Location, location, location!
Choose somewhere that is going to be easy for people to find and get to. You will also want somewhere that’s going to be big enough for the number of people that are coming. Then let people know with our downloadable posters. It’s always worth checking local bye-laws of any public parks you are considering as a venue.
3. Bring something purple!
Having a purple theme is a great way to help people feel involved. Wear some purple clothes, get a purple rug, you can even make some purple food (You can get some PCA cake toppers here).
Have a look at our supporter items from our shop.
4. Food and drink
Try giving each of your guests an item/type of food to bring. If it’s a hot day don’t forget to bring enough water to keep hyrdrated.
We also have a purple cupcake recipe you can try – find out more
