Kenilworth Town Council is getting together with Warwick District Council, Clean Air Warwickshire and Warwickshire County Council to hold Kenilworth's first Clean Air Day event – and the council want you to get involved.

This free event will be held on Sunday 16 June 2024 between 10am and 3pm at Abbey End in Kenilworth.

The aim is to raise awareness of the importance of clean air for our health and the environment.

The event will be demonstrating how everyone can get involved, have fun and improve our physical and mental health by getting more active – whether by walking, cycling, wheeling or scooting for shorter trips around the area, catching the bus, train or even switching to an electric car.

There will be stalls, activities, and food and drink for all the family: including bike skills, a range of adapted bikes to try, making your own smoothie on a bike – music, games and much more!

An exciting part of the event is a 'traffic free loop' for the whole community to get together and walk, wheel, cycle, scoot and play along a one mile stretch of road between 11am and 1pm.

The loop starts from Abbey End and goes along Randall Road and St Nicholas Avenue to the corner of Roseland Road and back again.

The event is being supported so far by Brompton, Kidvelo bikes and Bunji printing.

"So come along and get involved," the council said.

"Kenilworth Town Council want to hear from you if you're a community group, local sustainable business or school group who wants to take part.

"Maybe you can sponsor a stall or provide support?

"They're particularly keen to hear from local sustainable food and drink providers interested in providing a stall.
