About this event

What Can I Do? is a day festival with the aim of building and celebrating community around youth social action in Gloucestershire. 🌍✨🫶🥳 We're inviting young people (aged 14-30) who are doing organising work already, as well as those who want to find a way into youth social action but aren't sure what's out there!

Join us for food, crafts, workshops and talks, created by and for young changemakers. And meet other people doing organising near you!! 🔥🔥🔥

After the event, there's the chance to go with other young people attending to watch a performance of Weight of the Water.

Accessibility Information:
