Your involvement will put the ‘great’ in Great Big Green Week. So we’ll have a ton of resources to help you every step of the way. We’ll be updating this page in the coming months with lots of these resources, so keep an eye out!
Whether you are interested in having a more effective conversation about climate change, or want to organise a local green week, whatever you need you’ll be able to find it on this page.
You can connect with your local community and get the attention of local decision makers by hosting a Green Week or an event in your town. A local Green Week can be anything from a few to a few hundred local events. Our guide will have all the information you need to organise your own local Green Week or event.
What will make the Great Big Green Week so great is the range of events organised to celebrate the brilliant and unique work of communities, businesses and individuals across the country. If you need help getting started, this guide will have plenty of ideas to inspire you!
As part of this year’s Great Big Green Week, we’re asking everyone to write Letters to Tomorrow. Letters to Tomorrow explain peoples’ hopes for future generations if our leaders step up to protect the environment – and fears about what life could be like if we don’t slow down climate change.
This guide outlines how to write Letters to Tomorrow and how you can get involved during Great Big Green Week – either by incorporating letter writing into your existing plans, or by organising a dedicated event.
Unlock the power of working with your local politicians during Great Big Green Week. Created by Hope For The Future, this guide will help you to engage with your local politicians and provides inspiration from successful climate and nature events held by groups across the UK.
Community events during Great Big Green Week are a powerful way to show local politicians strong community interest in important issues. If you want to plan an event with political impact but don’t know where to start, our friends at Hope For The Future have put together a helpful guide to help you.
