Final Day for the final summer Youth Camp! 🧑🏻‍🎓 ⛺

Though Friday was a few days ago, we still wanted to share the final photos from an incredible week!

The participants had a go at scrambling, enjoyed a walk around the local woodlands and had a mindfulness moment next to a lake. 🥾🧗🏻🧘🏻

Adventures in Eryri Day 4 ☑️

Today's activity was conservation! 🥾🐢🚯♻️

As a Keep Wales Tidy hub we gathered together our litter pickers, rubbish bags, and gloves and headed to Criccieth.
These incredible young people worked diligently and collected a massive 5 full bags of litter from the beach, a huge feat of hard work. 🚯

List of some of the interesting items found:
- a cassette
- a double air bed
- a sole of a shoe
- an ice cream lid from Spain

🐳🪼Though we had fun on the task, it was an important reminder how even doing a little bit we can help remove the plastics from our oceans, making it safer for all the wonderful sea creatures. 🦭 🐠

🌺Today the Adventures in Eryri group identified their small mammals captured in the Longworth traps 🐁; they were champions of the Himalayan Balsam Bashing conservation day with Parc Cenedlaethol Eryri - Eryri National Park ; and thoroughly enjoyed some time to kick back and play frisbee and football in Betws-y-coed.🥏⚽
