If you want to help Slough become cleaner, safer and greener then come to Big Green Day Out in the Town Centre this Saturday (30 June).
There will be lots of fun for all the family – with stalls, activities and give aways.
Rickshaws will be helping people get about using people power, and Urban Strawberry – a ‘rubbish’ band will be making music out of items other people might throw away.
With an environmental workshop for Slough children, along with face painting and a fun ride youngsters can learn how to be as environmentally friendly as possible.
There are also stalls from British Gas and PowerGen and advice and information about recycling in Slough.
Twinkle Twinkle, the real nappy network will be demonstrating how easy it is to use real nappies and Wexham Nursery will have plants on sale.
And, as part of the campaign to help Slough become a Fairtrade town, there will be a stall dedicated to Fairtrade goods.
Green Police stiltwalkers will be on the beat making sure no environmental ‘crime’ is committed.
Nigel Dicker, head of Slough environmental services, said: “Big Green Day Out is all about helping residents be as environmentally friendly as possible, learn about how they affect climate change and how a few simple steps can make all the difference locally and globally.”
Cllr John Edwards, commissioner for public protection, said: “Big Green Day out is a fun way for our residents to find out about the issues that affect our environment.
“I know there are many residents who do their bit, but there is still more we can do – and this event will tell you some of the ways in which we can make an even bigger difference.”
