Description: On or around the 2nd Wednesday of each month, we assist the City & County of Swansea to maintain the network of footpaths. 

 

The actual day we go out will depend on the work schedule of the council’s Countryside Access Team.

 

Our volunteer work may include everything from pruning and strimming to stile repairs and bridge building.

 

All are welcome to take part, so if you are interested in becoming a volunteer with our team, please contact the coordinator to find out more information.
