About the event

Join us this November for Action at Idle, a fun and festive event where we’ll show you how to celebrate Christmas more sustainably — without losing the magic! As the festive season approaches, it’s easy to get swept up in overconsumption and waste. But small changes can make a big difference!

This hands-on event will give you simple, practical swaps to help you enjoy a greener Christmas — from gift-wrapping ideas and low-waste decorations to planet-friendly presents and more. Whether you’re a sustainability newbie or a seasoned eco-warrior, there’ll be something for everyone.

Come along for a cosy, creative afternoon full of inspiration, conversation, and community. Bring a friend, bring the family – or just bring yourself. Let's take Action at Idle and make this Christmas a little kinder to the planet.
