RESIDENTS are invited to attend an event providing tips on how to live a greener life.

Beaminster Town Council is holding the Big Green Day event on September 18 to give attendees practical ways of how to reduce their living costs, reduce the amount of waste they produce in a bid to minimise their carbon footprint, enjoy healthy food at a low cost, and to grow their own wildlife gardens.

A spokesman for Beaminster Town Council said: "We have our Big Green Day event on September 18. Please come and visit and see what we have on show."

The event will take place from 9.30am until 12pm at Beaminster Public Hall.
