A GREAT Big Fun Day on is set to crown a week of environment-related family events in Bovey Tracey.

Organisations across the town are coming together to stage the 2026 Great Big Green Week, the aim to help stimulate community activities that can mitigate climate change and ecological decline.

The week will open with a film night at The Phoenix Hall on Saturday June 13 and a showing of The Engine Inside.

On Tuesday June 16, craft experts will stage a workshop at which participants of all skill levels can create willow baskets.

A Summertime Cycle Ride on Thursday June 18 will explore the flora and fauna of Teigngrace Meadow, followed by a corn dolly making workshop on Friday June 19, the same day as a free exhibition entitled Staying Alive and featuring the skills and stories of 14 master makers keeping endangered crafts alive.

Throughout the week, an exhibition at The Riverside Gallery will reveal textile works developed in response to collections from Exeter’s Royal Albert Memorial Museum (RAMM).

Each piece in the Remnants collection will consider the historical narrative, material qualities and cultural significance of the RAMM artefacts.

A Repair Cafe in the Methodist Hall on Saturday June 20 will allow households to save items that might otherwise end up being binned, followed the next day by the Great Big Fun Day in Mill Marsh Park with more craft activities, a make-your-own smoothy bike, stalls and wildlife groups.

A quieter wildlife amble will round off the week on Sunday June 21.

Spokesman and town councillor Steve Oldrieve said: ‘We’re looking forward to a week full of green activities in Bovey and hope plenty of people will join us.

‘We want everyone to really enjoy their time while simultaneously being gently nudged into considering society’s impact on the environment.

‘We face some serious challenges but by pulling together, at a local and wider level, nothing is impossible.’
