People are being invited to head to Oaklands Park on Tuesday, October 26 and help to create a human sign spelling out the word ‘commit’ which will be captured in an aerial photograph as a show of the city’s pledge for a more sustainable future.
Participants are also invited to write down their own commitment. These will then be displayed in the foyer of the Chichester Festival Theatre as part of a partnership between The Great Sussex Way and the theatre.

Organisers of the Chichester event want the city to be involved in helping to make a real different to help improve both the local environment and the planet.
An organiser said: “Together we are going to make a giant human sign spelling out the words ‘Commit’ on Oaklands Park. Once we have taken an aerial photograph, we invite you to make a commitment – it can be one small thing that you personally, your business or family will commit to do today to work towards a more sustainable future.
“Commitments will be displayed in the Festival Theatre foyer throughout the COP 26 conference, with theatre visitors encouraged to add their own commitments.”
