Bridport's Great Big Green Week may have come to an end, but its spirit and message continues.

People came together to celebrate, consult and discuss ways to protect our planet. More than 500 people took part in 15 different events; from debating green ethics to trying out an electric bike, from listening to Shakespeare, to examining new sites for tree planting, to singing in the Borough Gardens.

At the heart of it all was Bridport proclamation, a prayer for Glasgow and all delegates at COP26, read out at the opening ceremony by Bridport's mayor, Ian Bark.

A spokesman for the event said: "We hope that the proclamation, along with the active spirit of the week, will inspire all of our community to join the national upswell of concern for the planet. And that this will lead to a successful outcome for the November summit."
