Posted on 28/07/2023 by ecoadmin

Join us for a fun and interactive family workshop, where we will use collage art to explore ways to create a brighter future for ourselves and our loved ones. This event is all about coming together as a community and envisioning a better tomorrow.

We will engage in various activities and discussions aimed at inspiring positive change. From brainstorming ideas to sharing personal experiences, we will encourage everyone to actively participate and contribute their unique perspectives.

Whether you are a parent, grandparent, or a child, this workshop is open to all ages. Together, we will explore topics such as sustainability, personal growth, and fostering a sense of community. By the end of the event, we hope to leave you feeling inspired and motivated to make a difference. And take home some commemorative collages!

Our interactive workshop in the Hub is for children and adults of any age. Inspired by Rob Hopkins Imaginarium. It starts at 10:30 and will finish around 12:00 on 23rd September
It’s for people of any age from 7 to 77 (or more) and it gets parents and children working together around the table, and sharing thoughts, fears, ideas and a feeling of success.

ECO Action Families Fun Day – This Saturday!

Posted on 10/07/2023 by ecoadmin

Come to the ECO Action Hub for one hour of workshops from 1100 to 1200 Saturday 15th July 2023. Get your family all involved in understanding how you all can be more eco-aware and climate friendly in what you eat and how you live as a family every day.

Why come?

Join in our kid-friendly workshops on ‘grow your own’, and on bio-diversity in the garden.
Discuss with families there what works best and what you can each do to make a difference.
With activities for you all to create and take-home meaningful mementos to make a difference now: grow your own beans or cress, or origami animals of species at risk.

What will the workshops cover?

Activity one – eat local to save carbon and packaging: understand as a family the significant contribution that transport and packaging make to ‘food carbon’ and what can you all do?
Activity two – eat in season to save carbon: hear about the carbon reduction benefits from eating food in season where possible, and what can families do together to help?
Activity three – reduce local biodiversity loss: see how much biodiversity loss has already occurred in the UK and how we can help to begin to reverse the trend.

What else do I need to know?

Please book your ‘free ticket’ for this event on Eventbrite on this link: Eventbrite Link
Workshops will start at 11:00 but please come before and look around the Hub from 10:00
We also have our Kids’ Clothes Swap here in the Hub that day – check it out and swap!

Kids’ Clothes Swap – This Saturday!

Posted on 08/07/2023 by ecoadmin

Don’t forget: Kids’ Clothes Swap in collaboration with animal army on Saturday 15th July. Shop other kids’ wardrobes and help reduce clothing waste – Save money and the planet!

Help reduce clothing waste, refresh your kid's wardrobes!

Kids grow quickly and keeping them in clothes that fit can be a financial challenge.

Swapping means you can upgrade their wardrobes for just a few pounds. And EVERY TIME you swap any unwanted piece of clothing you extend its lifecycle and reduce its carbon footprint!

Come to our ECO Action Hub Kids’ Clothes Swap in collaboration with animal army on Saturday 15th July. Help reduce clothing waste, and get “new” clothes for your kids!

is donating a collection of starter stock to help get the Swap going: Follow animal army on Facebook and Instagram to see their collection.

And remember:

You’re not swapping but ‘upgrading’ clothes from ones kids don’t wear to ones they will!
Our starter stock contains great brands, vintage pieces and new clothes with labels on.
All clothes are steam cleaned & hung on rails or folded on tables, so it’s easy to shop!

We think you’ll find this a great experience and great value for money!
