Green Expo 2023 is being held on the banks of the River Dee in Chester on June 15-17 to showcase the North West & North Wales’ green credentials.
As part of the Expo, Green Expo launched a photography competition for any ages or abilities with a special ‘Kids Colouring in Sheet’ for restaurants attractions, shops and retail, in and around the city to use for the months of May and June. Winning entries will be displayed in the cloisters at the Cathedral from 6 June until 25 June.
