🌧️ Dicky Tickers Walk Update! 🌧️

A few of our lovely regulars were missed this morning, but a dedicated crew braved the classic Welsh drizzle for our walk at Parc Nant -Y- Waun in Brynmawr! It turned out to be a wonderful, mild summer morning to get outside, have a chat, and get the steps in.

​Thank you to everyone who grabbed their raincoats and joined us! 🚶‍♂️🌿

​Next Walk: Mark your calendars! We’ll see you all on Wednesday, 1st July for our next stroll at Forest Farm Nature Reserve. See you there!

☀️ What a spectacular day out for Ein Llais! 🥾🌿

We had the most brilliant walk this week along the beautiful Monmouth and Brecon Canal, tracking the path from Talybont-On-Usk all the way to the osprey viewing spot. Safe to say, the group loved every single second of it! 😍🦅
A massive, heartfelt thank you to Ian Thomas from the Gwent Wildlife Trust . Having Ian along made the day even more special—his incredible knowledge blew us all away and gave us a whole new appreciation for the local wildlife and surroundings. We are so grateful for your time, Ian! 🪵🦉

📅 Looking Ahead:
See you all in two weeks for our next adventure at Garn Lakes! 🤞 Fingers, toes, and walking poles crossed that the weather gods are on our side this time—hopefully, we won't have to postpone this one again! ☀️🌧️
