A free climate fair is set to take place in Minehead.

The event has been organised by the West Somerset Green Forum and will be held at the Avenue Methodist Church Hall on September 28.

The event will take place between 2pm and 5pm, and attendees can enjoy live music, refreshments, and homemade cakes, as well as a host of other activities.

There will be a plant-swap stall, where people can take home plants, seeds, and bulbs, and a virtual beaver tour from the National Trust.

Somerset Council’s tree officer will be on hand to discuss trees and woodlands, and Somerset Rivers Authority’s officer will be available to talk about flood resilience.

Elizabeth Atkinson, from the West Somerset Green Forum, said: "The Fair has grown beyond my wildest expectations.

"There has been a huge response from people keen to be involved, and everyone has warmed to the positive theme.

"This is not about gloom and doom: it’s about feeling good about the small things we can do to make life better for ourselves and the planet, and the support available to help us to do them.

"It’s going to be a really fun event for everyone."

The event is free and open to everyone.
