What to expect

WCID (What Can I Do?) is a day festival with the aim of building and celebrating community around youth climate action in Gloucestershire. 🌍✨🫢πŸ₯³

We're inviting young people (15+) who are doing organising work already, as well as those who want to find a way into climate action but aren't sure what's out there!

Join us for music, food, talks and workshops from inspiring activists and artists. And meet other people doing organising near you!! πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯

Who's involved?

Gloucestershire Youth Climate Group (GYCG)

GYCG brings together the youth of Gloucestershire that are passionate about sustainability and the climate – giving opportunities to get involved in local projects and also have a say in what happens in their area. The group allows you to be a part of something bigger and have a real say and impact on important issues. You're supported to develop skills as well as get together with like-minded people and have fun. From canoeing and tree-planting to consulting with councils and delivering workshops with schools, you can get involved in as much or as little as you like. It's all member-led by our core panel who meet monthly, so young people get to choose where and how they use their voice while being supported to have a meaningful impact.
