Great Big Green Week 2025 event gets underway in Tenby
The event, which started yesterday (Saturday June 7), is all about 'swapping together for good', said the town's community engagement officer, Anne Draper.
'We can all make small swaps, large swaps and swaps that change the system, to make our communities better," she said.
'By coming together, we'll also send a message loud and clear to our politicians and decision-makers that we need to swap old ways for better ways now.'
For more information, contact Anne on annedraper@ or see the Tenby Town Council official Facebook page.
The week kicks off with a Bring your own Picnic Big Lunch at Tenby Community Edible Garden in Sutton Street.
