Background and OverviewThe Welsh Government’s Enabling Natural Resources and Wellbeing (ENRAW) has awarded funds for Ramblers Cymru to deliver a pan-Wales access and nature focused project. Working regionally, the project will facilitate community volunteering to enhance local green spaces, nature and access. In partnership with local authorities and environmental NGOs, Regional Officers will help identify alignments between nature and access objectives, acting as catalysts and facilitators to deliver action against the strategic plans and business objectives of partners and Ramblers Cymru.The project works with 18 communities across Wales. Through community and partner consultation, and engagement with new and existing volunteers, each region is benefiting from investment in infrastructure and equipment that drives forward the ambitions, and meets the local need, for better quality, more biodiverse, more accessible green spaces. In addition to staff in each of the 6 regions (aligned with NRW Area Statements), each regional officer has access to capital and revenue funding for infrastructure and equipment, volunteer recruitment and training, promotional material (including site-specific materials), and development support (to identify ongoing funding and additional resources).
