The woodland classroom at Johnston CP Outdoor learning across the county has received a welcome boost over the past 12 months as a result of additional funding secured by the Pembrokeshire Outdoor Schools (PODS) project, which has covered the cost of a co-ordinator working directly with schools. Thanks to financial backing from the People’s Postcode Local Trust and Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Trust, the PODS co-ordinator has been able to help with the delivery of high quality, curriculum-linked learning experiences in school grounds and local outdoor spaces. Part of the co-ordinator’s role is also to bring together local and national organisations, including Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority’s discovery team, teachers and head teachers.
STAY home and don’t travel to the Preseli Hills. That’s the message from Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority, Dyfed-Powys Police and Pembrokeshire County Council with more snow forecast in the coming days. The appeal comes after hundreds of people headed to the Preselis when it snowed last month. The current Alert Level 4 restrictions in Wales require people to stay at home and not to travel without reasonable excuse. Exercise should begin and end at home and you must not drive to a location away from home for this purpose, unless you need to due to specific health or mobility issues.
A range of new and updated supplementary planning guidance (SPG) is being proposed for Pembrokeshire. Supplementary planning guidance sets out more detailed information on the way policies of the Local Development Plan (LDP) will be applied in particular circumstances or areas. The SPG documents on caravan camping and chalet development; parking standards; place plan – community land trust and affordable housing; renewable energy, and sustainable design and development apply only to applications made in the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. The joint SPG documents on Archaeology and Biodiversity cover the whole of Pembrokeshire. The consultation period for all documents will run until 4.30pm on February 12, 2021.
Crowds descended on the Brecon Beacons today despite Welsh police and park authorities urging people to stick to stringent lockdown rules.
Hikers and families with sledges defied pleas from officials and headed to the snow-blanketed Storey Arms beauty spot, wrapping up for the crisp wintry weather.
Brecon Beacons authorities have expressly told people to follow stay at home orders and not come to the site. Wales is in lockdown with only essential travel permitted, therefore people are unable to drive to visit any of the Welsh National Parks, reads the instruction.
