Activity week

Activity weeks are a way of focusing energy and attention on the local environment and initiatives to improve it. They are particularly effective if they become an annual event and even more so if part of a national programme.

A programme of events and activities is produced on a suitable theme. One week is a good length for making an impact but it can be longer or shorter.

Organisations and individuals are invited to organise activities and events during the week and have them advertised in the programme.

The programme is promoted by a coordinating body which may be a partnership, preferably including local media.
