August Roundup.

August is traditionally a very quiet time around Coed Bach park and this year is no exeption.
Local PCSO officers had stepped up patrols in the park over the summer holidays but the bad weather seemed to play its part and helped keep any trouble under control.
Apart from three scrambling bikes using the park and members of the public coming forward with information regarding the incident, the park has been otherwise quiet as FOCBP members continue litter picks and a spot of tidying up throughout this quiet period.

In October work parties should resume their efforts, as you know we cannot do much cutting during summer months, due to the wildlife which settles and nests in the park over this period of time.
The unfortunate consequence of this is the park looks overgrown and slightly untidy.
But it is all about management of the enviroment and no work is carried out without the approval of Swansea City Council and various enviromental groups.

There is a mini adventure course currently being installed in the Childrens play area.
Hopefully this will be ready soon.

The project to build the boardwalk out to the seasonal pond will be underway very soon, And FOCBP will be looking forward to working with various groups on this project.
It will make for easier access to the main seasonal pond in the second woods, and it will feature an area where you can go pond dipping  for wildlife and other creatures that live in the pond.

Volunteers are constantly working on funding ideas during these quiet times, so even though nothing is being worked on in the park we are busy behind the scenes.
And of course we are always on the look out for new volunteers.

As usual we post regular updates on our Facebook and Twitter sites and you can click on the links at the top of this page.
