About the event

We would like to warmly invite you to join us for a Youth Community Gathering at Grow Wilder to celebrate the amazing work of young people in and around Bristol.

Community Gatherings are a way of bringing people together to inspire local action for nature. Past themes have included wildlife gardening, running a community group, guerrilla food growing and building a wildlife pond, amongst other things. This event will give space for young people to shout about what they've been doing for nature in their community, learn from other young people and share their knowledge and passion.

This event is open to all ages and is led by young people (open to anyone who wants to be inspired by youth-led projects and gain an insight into young people's priorities for and experience in nature).

We'd love you to help us shape what this event looks like! Are you under 30 and want to be involved in this event? Fill out the form below to tell us how. There's options to give talks, run nature-based activities, have a stall to chat to people about your ideas, project etc.
