I am just concerned that if everyone was to wait until September or October, it might be too late
We don't exactly have a history of protests doing a lot in this country anyway. The last one was c.1m? which (given Iraq protests) seems to be about the high tide for 'very large protest'. I'm sure they could match those levels again today, tomorrow or in October. I'm not sure that much would happen.

Protests in the streets are completely ineffectual today. The only strength protests ever had was that it was hard to estimate what strength of feeling was really behind them, or, indeed, if something like the Bastille was actually stormed. Nowadays, there is very accurate data on the strength of protests and what people at large really think. And, funnily enough, most people just want to get on with their lives ...
Thank you, all valid points, especially regarding Brexit fatigue. It's also true that protests have to be timed right to have an impact. I am just concerned that if everyone was to wait until September or October, it might be too late. It doesn't look like Boris is looking to enter negotiations in good faith and he is running down the clock instead. Public support would probably also strengthen the resolve of Tory rebels and opposition to prevent No Deal.
