About Planet Wimborne

Planet Wimborne aims to bring the community in Wimborne and surrounding areas together in response to the climate and ecological emergency.


Green Festival 2026:  10 – 17 October

A huge ‘Thank You’ to everyone who helped to make our Green Festival so successful, in whichever way you supported us – as volunteers, community groups, sponsors, venues, speakers, event hosts and, of course, all who visited the Green Fair and attended events.

If you aren’t already a Planet Wimborne supporter, please consider signing up to our Newsletter which will tell you what is coming up and how you can get involved with us and our Community Groups.  (Recent Newsletters are on our website)


Green News on Radio Wimborne

Planet Wimborne now has a regular ‘Green News’ slot on Radio Wimborne’s Monday Brunch show, hosted by Glen Fowler and Malcolm Angel, between 10 and 11am.  This is an opportunity for our Community Groups to appear on the show and share what you do and any events/projects you wish to promote.

On 2nd November, John Bennett talked about all the good things happening at Wimborne Men’s Shed  (Listen again at https://player.autopod.xyz/1532218 from 26 minutes 46 seconds onwards).   Not just for men who have woodworking skills!

Please contact Planet Wimborne on planetwimborne@gmail.com if you’d like to promote your group or event.
