Rivers, Roots and Resilience – A Day of Climate Action
Following on from the success of last year’s inaugural Day of Action for Herefordshire’s rivers and wetlands, HWT present Rivers, Roots and Resilience – A Day of Climate Action across Herefordshire and the Wye Valley on Saturday 6th September.
Throughout the day, community groups and organisations will be running activities to celebrate wildlife, explore our rivers and landscapes, raise awareness of climate change, and take local action for a more sustainable future. All activities are free to take part in and most are family-friendly.
There are also a number of tours taking place during the day which showcase actions others are taking such as at Dôl-Wen, an off-grid smallholding near Tintern, and at Ballingham Court where participants can enjoy a guided walk through a beautiful Herefordshire farm to uncover nature-friendly farming on the banks of the River Wye. Some events look at some of our smallest species – our moth breakfasts at Marden and Llangrove – while, at the other end of the scale, Chepstow Museum is holding a Big Fish exhibition! At Bartonsham Meadows in Hereford, family activities include WildPlay, river surveys, coracle displays and a nature trail while over in Hereford Town Hall, Herefordshire Council will be presenting talks and discussion on Environmental Careers in Herefordshire.
There will also be free unlimited travel on bus routes 65 and 69 throughout the day – forming a circular journey between Chepstow and Monmouth through the stunning Wye Valley.
A full list of events and activities with details of how to book (where necessary) can be found on the HWT website.
