WOKING TAKES THE JUMP

In 2022 the wonderful people of Woking have been ‘taking the jump’ in a whole range of ways, pioneered by local group WEAct (Woking Environmental Action Group).

WEAct have a fantastic Climate Hub in Woking town centre, which provides information, inspiration and support for the local community through events, talks, showcases and more! The Hub is separated into six area, one for each of the six shifts. The summer has had a very busy schedule with a different week devoted to each shift, with events for that day.wonderful events like:

  • Clothes repair workshops (Dress Retro)

  • Seed plant and produce swap (Eat Green)

  • Kids Welly swap (Dress Retro)

  • Family Cycle drop ins (Travel Fresh)

  • Meet free Monday’s (Eat Green)

  • Great big green week: Woking ‘take the jump’ event, encouraging residents and businesses within Woking to sign up to one or more of six life shifts, thereby taking a jump into a more sustainable life that protects the earth.

  • Writing Green hearts for decision makers as part of (Change the System)
