Meet at: The Mineslope Ruins

2025 SPRING WALK

Over the past week, emails have been sent to horse riding members about the locks being changed on the gates. The locks will be changed on Saturday 5th October at approximately 2pm.

If you have not received an email, please email membership@blaenbran.wales to arrange to exchange the key.

For lapsed members, the Horse Riding Agreement you agreed to does state that the horse membership includes the lease of the key, so it must be returned to us at the end of your membership. If you haven’t already done so, can you please contact me at the email address above to arrange the return. There will be no fine or black marks against you!!. We can sell multiple locks using the same key with multiple keys on to other organisations – and the more keys we have the more we can get back from our initial payout. As a charity, this counts a little to our cashflow, so it is much appreciated if you can return the keys!!

Why not join us for a foray in the woodland to discover some marvelous mushrooms?

Once again BBCW has reached the high standards needed to achieve the internationally renowned Green Flag Community Award, from #GreenFlagWales.

This is the 9th year we have achieved this award and we must say a big thank you to our group of volunteers and everyone who has helped towards this. Especially those of you who take home your own litter/dogs waste or pick up after others.
