Natural Resources Wales has teamed up with Coventry University to encourage people out into the beautiful Welsh countryside and to find out what stops them from going.

Some of the feedback we’ve had is that people are worried about livestock in open spaces.  What to do if you see a herd of cows, for instance?  What to do if you are walking your dog?  Hence, we’ve asked PONT (Pori Natur A Threftadaeth) to deliver some training for us that addresses some of these issues.

This free 2-hour online training course is designed to help you feel comfortable in the countryside and to advise others you might also see this as a challenge.

The first session is Friday 17^th November at 10am with more sessions to follow.
