Highlights included a clothes swap, a bake and cook sale with surplus food from local stores, and a plant and seed swap with donations from B&Q. Refill stations for eco-friendly products, supported by lab suppliers, were popular among attendees. The Bike Doctor clinic on the 13th June offered free bike repairs to promote sustainable transport.
On 12th June, representatives from NEB and Appleton Woods gave talks on sustainable laboratory products, followed by a lunch and tours of the school’s green initiatives. Dunn School staff and students responded enthusiastically, participating in swaps and making donations. Proceeds went to Oxford Mutual Aid.
The Dunn School Green Group, who organised the event, continues to raise awareness about climate change, highlighting the impact of small, everyday actions. The festival showcased the power of community collaboration in driving positive environmental change.
