What is the Great Big Green Week?

The Great Big Green Week is  a national celebration of community action to tackle climate change and protect nature. It is led by the Climate Coalition to engage people with the issues around the climate and biodiversity crisis.

 

Every year, people come together to unleash a wave of support for action to protect the planet. Tens of thousands of people in every corner of the country celebrate the heartfelt, brave, everyday actions being taken to stand up for nature and fight climate change.

We are delighted to share with you the events that have been organised by local groups in Reigate and Redhill to celebrate nature and raise awareness of the climate crisis. Find out more information below.
