Festival of Nature

Back To The Planet was at the Festival of Nature on the 12th and 13th June at Bristol’s Harbourside to raise support for “The Great Western Wacky Bath Tub Race” which we plan to hold next summer.

Last year, we raised money for the Galapagos Conservation Trust by raffling a framed photograph by William Bolton. This year we were asking the Festival of Nature crowds to vote for the charity which will benefit from the bath tub race and gave people some inspiration by building our bath tub craft on-site.

The charity which will benefit from the event may be The Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust, FRANK Water or The Westcountry Rivers Trust, who all benefit people and the environment through their work.
