Celebrating the Cegin WIth Extinction Rebellion Wales
Recently we joined Extinction Rebellion Wales to walk the banks of the Afon Cegin. Along the walk different speakers were encouraged to share their knowledge meaning the event was filled with fascinating insights into the river’s past and present — from Welsh folklore and local histories to the mining legacy of Penrhyn and its lasting impact on the landscape.
Participants also got hands-on with citizen science, carrying out water quality testing and discussing pollution pressures within the catchment.
A huge thanks to the organisers and everyone who came along and contributed to such an inspiring day. We look forward to connecting with more people along the Afon Cegin in the near future.
