“The coolest sustainable living festival this side of the river Thames….”
Nature & Climate Festival
The Thames Ditton & Weston Green Nature & Climate Festival was set up in 2022 to encourage local residents to lead more sustainable lives. Over the years we’ve had inspirational speakers, built a solar panel, laughed at green comedy, relaxed to eco pop, dyed clothes with flowers, swapped pre-loved clothes, tested the water quality of the Thames, excercised in a green bootcamp and had a whale bath, to name just a few of the 100+ things we’ve done. (Photos below are: Winston Holland from Wildlife Aid Foundation; the Festival founding team of l-r Katie Randerson, Lucy Siegle, Caroline James and Gill Coates; our gardening guru Joy Lee.)




We’re back on 9-11th
