Picture
Join us for Dursley's first Sustainability Fair here at Kingshill House Creative Centre.

We're delighted to be running this fair in collaboration with Vegan Fairs. There will be a mixture of food stalls and other vegan products on sale. Some of the stall holders will also be giving talks in the House. Scroll down for more information on talks and times.

Inside the House, there will be different activities throughout the day; family activities, educational talks from leaders in sustainable living, seed giveaways from Wild Acres CIC, lip balm workshop from sustainable soap maker Seal, and activities from Wild Hogs Hedgehog Rescue. Some activities may incur a participation fee.

​
We are also creating a Common Ground style map called 'The Big Green Map of Cam & Dursley'. People are invited to mark down any sustainable activity they know about, or are doing, in the local area. From beekeeping to growing vegetables in your garden. This is a great way to meet like-minded people and explore what else is going on in our area.
