CUMBRIANS are being encouraged to go green in June as part of Friends of the Lake District's Green Travel Month.

A month of activities is being planned and promoted to show how easy it is to enjoy Cumbria and how many places and events can be reached without a car.

Ideas include walks accessible by public transport in the Lake District National Park, links with National Bike Week and a car free' day on June 18.

A full listing of events can be found at www.fld.org.uk/events.
