Less screen-time, more green-time!
The school holidays are here and many of us are looking for low-cost adventures to enjoy with the kids over the next 6 weeks. With climate change threatening much of what we all love about the South West, we know many parents and grandparents are keen to teach the next generation about their role in caring for our wild places. Taking part in the South West Coast Path Association’s Challenge over the summer is a great way to achieve both!

I have walked with family, friends and alone; each were special in different ways. Family – this was something wonderful to share, and in years to come we will have built memories together. Friends – I have never laughed so much despite the baking sun or thick relentless mud. Alone – it felt amazingly liberating, calming and rewarding.
