Time: 11.00am – 4.00pm

Tickets: Free, pop down anytime to say hello.
Imagine a world where talking about climate change is like a nice natter with your nan…
Climate Nan is in your town!
Nan’s fed up with politicians. She’s touring her caravan along the length and breadth of Britain so she can hear your climate solutions, your good ideas, and your opinions, hopes and fears. Because no one knows your local area like you do.
Always happy to lend an ear and serve the T, Nan will help share your communities’ climate stories and get YOUR voices heard by the politicians!
“Climate Nan is kind and comforting, more than happy to listen to residents talk climate change concerns. But she is also feisty and fierce and will have no problem taking their concerns right to the very top of Government if she has to!” Edie Gill
Part of Knotty, a festival of performance for the adventurous from 6 to 16 June 2024.
