The Partnership are looking for volunteers to help carry out an environmental walkabout.
UPDATE!!!!!
The Environmental Walkabout held on the Park Estate was a great success. Around 40 people turned up and, as they walked around the estate, residents came over to see what was happening and gave their views on their local environment - some good, some bad !!
The next walkabout is this Thusday (details below) so come and join us!
The Environmental Walkabout is an audit of the green spaces, roads, foot paths, street lighting in the Greater Bargoed area. As well as checking the location of facilities such as litter bins we will also be looking for signs of pollution and vandalism. This is a great chance to have a say about the green spaces in your area and highlight any environmental concerns that you may have. We will be holding them all over the area on various dates so come along to your nearest one! Everyone is welcome to join us so you can bring the whole family for some fresh air.
