A NEW project is being launched which aims to help more people plan outdoors activities across Pembrokeshire.

The Pathways project is run by the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority and aims to help more people spend time in the outdoors by providing volunteering, learning and training opportunities in the National Park.

The project will provide more than 2,000 volunteering experiences over a three-year period, and will focus on people who want to improve their health and wellbeing as they make environmental improvements for communities in and around Pembrokeshire Coast National Park.

The Park Authority’s Pathways Project Coordinator, Tom Moses said: “People are very much at the centre of Pathways. Their views, skills and experience will help guide the development of the project, which will include the opportunity for them to develop leadership abilities as well as have some inspirational experiences across our beautiful county.”

Volunteers will need to be aged 16 or over and may need to be able to commit a full day at a time. There are also plans to provide some shorter opportunities to better meet some people’s needs.

The volunteers will tackle practical tasks including footpath repairs, hedge laying, woodland management, and other conservation projects in the National Park.
