Happy New Year! To welcome in 2026, we’re hoping to bring you an excellent Sunday Assembly For Good Measure! This month, we are bringing one of our lovely science geniuses & longtime friend of Sunday Assembly to our main talk slot! The very excellent Tom Fox will be talking to us about how to visualise the greatness and smallness of our mind boggling universe using the very handy tools of a normal ruler and a cup of tea. We also have our own very helpful community member Lydia talking a little about some interesting musical measures.

This month we’re once again raising money* for Science Projects UK, who build interactive exhibits in museums up and down the country (and are the recent saviours of the Observatory Science Centre at Herstmonceux).

Beyond that, our regular round of singing, poetry, food bank**, tea (bring your keep-cup!), cake***, and friendly chit-chat with old friends and new****, to keep our spirits up and community warm 🙂

Aaaannnd… honest moment – we love putting on sunday assembly, but we really could use a few extra heads, hearts, and hands (preferably still attached to willing volunteers) to help us keep this community going #sundayassemblybrighton #sundayassembly#brighton #whatsonbrighton #wondermore #livebetter #helpoften

*money raised is usually split 50:50 between the charity and Sunday Assembly (for running costs, hall hire, tea, etc) but we’re running low on funds, so the 50:50 split will be after we’ve covered costs.
** tins of food, dry packet food, toiletries, and so on to be distributed to Brighton food banks by us at Sunday Assembly 🙂
*** and if you’re a keen baker – bring cake/brownies/your great bake-off practice pieces!
**** hey, tell your friends and bring them along too – more people = more community = more singing and good times 🙂
***** No reason not to have an extra asterisk fact for funsies, hey? Mathematician John von Neumann coined the term “microcentury” to describe the length of a lecture (52 minutes and 35.7 seconds)
