Young People and Nature

Would you like to learn more about nature-based solutions to combat climate change and help wildlife in your community?

Gwent Wildlife Trust, along with the five other Wildlife Trusts in Wales are working to empower and inspire young people from all backgrounds who want to take action for nature in their local area in a bid to tackle climate change.

Gwent Wildlife Trust has three youth groups, in Ebbw Vale, Magor and Pontypool. We meet on Tuesdays from 18:00 to 20:00.

The meetings consist of indoor and outdoor nature-based activities, campaigns, educational talks and sustainable skill building. 

During school holidays, sessions include all day courses, camping and field trips.

Together we can combat the effects of global warming by using nature-based solutions such as creating wildflower meadows, planting trees, establishing green roofs and rainwater gardens and making room for nature.

Our work with young people is made possible by a combination of funding from the National Lottery Community Fund, Magor with Undy Town Council and Pontypool Community Council.
