ORGANISERS OF THE EVENT
The Redditch Green Fair is made possible thanks to the combined efforts of volunteers from various local green groups, who originally joined forces to stage the 2006 Fair, under the banner of Redditch Green Alliance. Since then, the groups involved have continued to work together on various issues and have changed their name to Redditch Alliance of Greens(RAG). The alliance comprises local environmental, ethical and social justice groups, all working towards a more sustainable town and planet.
