NEWS
THE ‘LOST FOOTBALL GROUNDS’ EXHIBITION
Due to popular demand, this humorous exhibition will be returning to the Shop and Walk and Discover Centre in Llanberis during September (date to be arranged, I will let you know). The exhibition by Gareth Wyn Roberts of Waunfawr and The Walk and Discover Project is currently in the Felin Sgwrsio, Bangor Street, Felinheli until 31st August.
THE NORTH WALES SLATE TRAIL
The good news is that we have been commissioned to create a minimum of 15 maps for the new SLATE TRAIL which will be created in the next couple of years. A consortium was successful in their Lottery Grant application to create this 100-mile long distance footpath and I will update you on developments as they happen.
