Great Big Green Week 2023
The Great Big Green Week is the UK’s biggest ever celebration of Community Action to tackle climate change and protect nature, and everyone’s invited!
Help us make the 10 -18 June the greatest, biggest, greenest week the UK has ever seen by running an activity with your unit!
Activity ideas:
- Go outdoors, discover nature and earn a badge using one of the RSPB and Girlguiding London and South East England activity packs – Together with Nature, Brilliant Birds, or Growing Up Wild RSPB Paw Print
- Run a craftivism activity, make a green heart to wear or display to show you care about climate action. Find inspiration here
- Write a ‘Letter to Tomorrow’, explaining your hopes for future generations if our leaders step up to protect the environment – and your fears about what life could be like if we don’t slow down climate change. You can upload your letters and view others’ letters on the Letters to Tomorrow website.
- Download a poster from some of the UK’s best loved children’s book illustrators, colour it in, and display it in your window to show that you care about climate action.
