Let’s Talk Trash X Agents of Change
From festival to action.
One incredible festival. Hundreds of young changemakers. Endless possibilities for action.
Let's Talk Trash is an exciting, hands-on environmental festival held at Braxted Park in Essex, bringing primary school children together to explore waste, recycling, litter and the impact our choices have on the planet.
Through interactive challenges, creative experiences and practical activities, children are inspired to think differently about the world around them.
But the inspiration doesn't have to end when the festival finishes.
That's where Agents of Change comes in.
A festival with a mission
First launched in 2023, Let's Talk Trash was created to challenge attitudes towards litter and waste, bringing environmental education to life through exciting, hands-on experiences.
The festival has continued to grow, welcoming hundreds of pupils from schools across Essex to discover, question, create and explore.
It's a day packed with energy, creativity and discovery, designed to inspire the next generation to care for their environment and recognise the difference they can make.
The festival creates
the spark.
Agents of Change turns it into action.
What happens when the excitement of an environmental festival meets a movement that empowers children to make change? Something pretty special!
Agents of Change is proud to partner with Let's Talk Trash to ensure that the learning, energy and inspiration children take away from the festival continues long after the day itself.
Through follow-on lessons, practical resources and pupil-led projects, we help schools turn environmental awareness into meaningful action. Check out our resources for more details. From investigating litter hotspots and reducing waste to designing solutions and organising community litter picks, children are encouraged to take ownership of the issues that matter to them.
Because it's not just about what children learn. It's about what they do with that learning. Together, we're turning one day of inspiration into a lasting ripple effect.
