Derbyshire Dales District Council will be holding the third annual ‘Green Event’ in Bakewell.

Come along on Saturday 17th August, 10am-3pm at Agricultural Business Centre, DE45 1AH. 

The event is designed to showcase solutions to the climate and biodiversity crisis encouraging residents, businesses and visitors to reduce their carbon footprint and make room for nature.

Stalls and displays will include home energy improvement and retrofit advice with local trusted air source heat pump and solar panel installers and glazing specialists.

Marches Energy Agency will be there with their Fantastic Home vehicle offering free impartial energy-saving and efficiency advice and giveaways, helping residents to save money and reduce our community’s climate impact.

They will be joined by the Council's partners Serco who will be bringing one of their refuse vehicles to the event, demonstrating how our waste is collected and what happens to it after collection. The Council's waste team will also be on hand with recycling demos and interactive games.

If you are a local business, community group or charity passionate about solutions to climate change or nature recovery, you are welcome to get involved.

Tables and chairs can be provided (will be a mixture of inside and outside depending on the weather) so all you'll need is any display materials you would like to provide. There is no charge for being part of the event.
