Eynsham's Great Big Green Week - taking place from 18-26 September 2021 - is looking for community groups, individuals, families, schools, and groups of friends and neighbours to help celebrate our village's great green endeavours, and inspire others to do more. The week forms a part of a national Great Big Green Week in the lead up to this year's UN Summit on Climate Change (COP26) and will show our leaders how much we care.
There will be events, demos, workshops, exhibits, talks, performances, and trails around the village, as well as entertainment, food and stalls showcasing things we can do to help build a better future for our planet. We also hope to host demos of electric vehicles and eBikes.
