EARTH Hour takes place this year on Saturday, March 30 from 8.30-9.30pm and the Dorchester Churches Together Ecology Group will be marking this with an event at the Quiet Place, Poundbury.

We will reflect, by candle light, and share our thoughts about our precious planet and are asking people to bring along any readings, pictures and objects you wish.

We will also be sharing our ideas on what steps we intend to take in the coming year in our efforts to help protect the Earth.

For those who can’t join us, we would love it if you could participate at home in this annual global event.

Please find time to switch off lights and other electrics at home for this hour.
