10am-3pm
This April we're opening our doors for another Sustainability Hub: Big Green Ideas Day.
Join us as we connect and inspire our community to take small but mighty environmental actions together.
Our Big Green Ideas Day is a vibrant gathering of ideas and individuals committed to sustainability, featuring our ‘Marketplace of Change’ with stalls showcasing eco-friendly practices and products. Attendees can also enjoy engaging arts and crafts activities, and clothes swaps - all free and open for everyone to drop in.
We proudly partner with businesses and organisations that prioritise sustainability, inspiring and empowering our visitors to live greener lives. Join us and be part of the movement toward a more sustainable future!
Marketplace of Change Organisations:
Providing advice on buying and owning solar panels and battery storage for householders and small businesses.
Providing reusable tableware to borrow for an event and then return, ready to be used again. It’s a practical solution that cuts down on single-use waste, lowers the carbon footprint of celebrations, and ensures materials are used to their fullest.
Southampton Seed Swap is an annual community seed swapping event, popping up also at random intervals through the year.
Sea glass and shell art, eco crochet and up-cycled denim home-wares.
Vintage and pre-loved wicker and baskets. Saved from landfill and ready for a new home. Wicker for all occasions from hampers to log baskets.
Baby and children’s nearly new sales.
Natural, vegan, handmade soap, shampoo & conditioner products - all plastic free.
Bramble & Fig
