From 18-26th September, communities across the country will join together for the Great Big Green Week - a national week of events celebrating action on climate change.

There will be over 2000 events taking place across the country for Great Big Green Week, including local Greenpeace group events, where you can get involved in a range of activities to build pressure on the UK government before it hosts world leaders in Glasgow, at the global summit on climate change (also known as COP 26)

At the Greenpeace Local Group stalls, there will be lots of ways that you can make your voice heard at COP 26, like writing personal messages to world leaders. There will be plenty of people to chat to about taking climate action and why the global climate summit is so important.

The events are open to everyone and will be family friendly, so you are welcome to bring a group or just drop down on your own and say hello.

There will be Greenpeace Local Group events happening across the country – find your nearest event here:
