You’ve probably seen the quote: "Everybody wants a village, but nobody wants to be a villager." Well, we’re calling bullshit, and we’ve written a whole pub quiz to show you why.

In a low-stakes, high-vibes pub quiz format, we’re going to showcase all the ways people are already showing up for their communities, and look at how to make it easier rather than harder. Expect neighbourhood-flavoured trivia, surprising examples, a bit of friendly competition, and plenty of stories about what it takes to build a place people want to contribute to. Be sure to round up your cleverest, most community-oriented mates: our winning table will be crowned village champions, but you don’t want your crew going home as the village idiots!

We think people do want to show up as villagers. They just need a compelling invitation, the right support in place, and a reminder that the hard graft of making a village work is worth it.
