Are you an individual, group or organisation with a passion for our planet, sustainability and biodiversity? Great Big Green Week returns to Frome for 2025, and event submissions are now open for your ideas. Great Big Green Week is the UK’s biggest celebration of community action to tackle climate change and protect nature, with Frome entering its fourth year supporting the cause and showcasing brilliant ways to keep sustainable practices in mind, and the future of ourselves and our planet at heart.
Events can be for any age, free or ticketed, indoor or outdoor, and organised by any individual, group or organisation. The only criteria for being part of Frome’s Great Big Green Week are that the event has an environmental, biodiversity or climate-friendly theme, and takes place in and around Frome.
Frome has been part of Great Big Green Week since 2021 and the programme has featured a wide range of events including a river festival, planet-friendly family picnic, walks, talks, workshops, clothes swaps, bike rides and more.
Cllr Fiona Barrows said “Frome is full of people doing their bit to look after the planet and Great Big Green Week is a fantastic example of people coming together to celebrate, inform and educate. The climate crisis can feel so overwhelming that it’s hard to know where to start. Last year’s events programme included the themes of ‘swap, share and repair’, ‘wellbeing’ and ‘cycling’, as well as focussing on nature and how we can take action. We hope that you feel inspired to put on your own event for a fantastic cause, so please get involved in June and let’s make this the best Great Big Green week yet.”
