Make a clean air pledge

We think that everyone can -and maybe should- play a part in cleaning up our air. You could pledge a small but significant contribution. Before or on the day you're invited to:-

Look at the pledges made already by others
Make a clean air pledge of your own and share it with others
Help celebrate and share everyone's pledges at the evening meet up and join the discussion

DISCLAIMER: participation in all of our Clean Air Day Bishopston activities is on a first-come, first-served basis, and is subject to any numbers limits applying to the venue (especially in the event of wet weather). Attendance is at your own risk...and we hope you enjoy taking part!
