This year's Green Festival has been hailed a great success by the organisers. The aims of the festival were to engage with as many people as possible from as wide a background as possible, with a particular focus on young people and local businesses. With this in mind, the packed week long programme had something for everybody.

We'll assemble at Bournemouth Pier Approach from 11am for activities including placard making. The march will head off through Bournemouth Gardens from midday, ending at The Triangle for a rally. Feel free to bring your creativity - wear costumes, bring banners and placards, sing, chant . . . the bigger the impact we can make the better! There is an open invitation for anyone to make a speech or say a few words at the rally.
