World Rainforest Day recognises standing, healthy forests as one of the most powerful and cost-effective climate change mitigation tools we have — and creates a global movement to protect and restore them.
The 2025 Theme is ‘Buy Better, Be More’
Come along to Planet Wimborne's annual Green Festival to meet local groups and hear about all the great environmental activities going on in the town and surrounding area.
The Festival is going from strength to strength and we believe we have something for everyone: from the Minster Fair on the first Saturday to craft workshops, walks and talks spread throughout the week. (Some of the events are ticketed, even though many are free - see links further down this page for tickets.)
Wilding Wimborne are not only wild but positively buzzing with excitement as Wimborne has just been awarded Bee Friendly Town status by the Bee Friendly Trust!
When Elizabeth was first crowned there were street parties up and down the country. People brought out their
tables and chairs, their best tablecloths and china and celebrated in style.

homemade bunting and make it a really special occasion.
