Enjoy The Outdoors And Stay Safe
Enjoy The Outdoors And Stay Safe
It has been great to see so many people out visiting the orchards and other wildlife sites. Please remember that the sites have largely been created by and are managed by the Wildlife Group in the village. All members are volunteers and we receive no official funding. All sites are there only because the landowners, whether the Vale of Glamorgan Council or local farmers, have supported the projects and allowed the space to be used. If anyone, whether adults on their own or families, would like to help, do get in touch.
Of course, access to the countryside brings with it the responsibility to look after it and whilst many will be aware of the Highway Code, how many of you know the Countryside 
Code? Here it is as a reminder, this version taken from the Welsh Government website.
Respect other people. Consider the local community and other people enjoying the outdoors. Leave gates and property as you find them and follow paths unless wider access is available.
Protect the natural environment. Leave no trace of your visit and take your litter home. Keep dogs under effective control.
Enjoy the outdoors and stay safe. Plan ahead and be prepared. Follow advice and local signs.
You will find more detail in leaflets and on websites. These thoughts are often summed up as:
Take only photographs – leave only footprints.
