Environmental Events Digwyddiadau Amgylcheddol Swansea Abertawe Environmental Events Digwyddiadau Amgylcheddol Swansea Abertawe February - July 2011 Chwefror - Gorffennaf Introduction This is the first of two editions of the 2011 Environmental Events booklet and provides details of over 230 events taking place in and around Swansea from mid-February to the end of July. These events include guided walks and cycle rides through some of the UK’s most beautiful countryside, and a wide range of talks, workshops and training courses about wildlife and environmental issues. There are also lots of children’s activities in local nature reserves, in parks, on beaches and in other interesting places. Most of the events are FREE or at low cost so everyone can get involved. This booklet is compiled by the City and County of Swansea’s Nature Conservation Team with the support of Swansea Environmental Education Forum (SEEF) and funding from the Countryside Council for Wales. If you have relevant events for the second edition, which will cover the period from June to December 2011, then please contact the Nature Conservation Team (contact details below). Please note that information on events run by other organisations is published in good faith and the City and County of Swansea cannot be held responsible for inaccuracies. For further information on local organisations, please refer to the contact list at the back of the booklet. Additional events may also be listed on their websites.

Mae'r digwyddiadau hyn yn cynnwys teithiau cerdded tywys a theithiau beicio trwy rai o fannau gwledig harddaf y DU, ac amrywiaeth eang o sgyrsiau, gweithdai a chyrsiau hyfforddiant ynglyn ˆ â bywyd gwyllt a materion amgylcheddol. Mae llawer o weithgareddau i blant hefyd mewn gwarchodfeydd natur lleol, mewn parciau, ar draethau ac mewn lleoedd diddorol eraill. Mae'r rhan fwyaf o'r digwyddiadau AM DDIM neu'n rhad fel y gall pawb gymryd rhan. Lluniwyd y daflen hon gan Dîm Cadwraeth Natur Dinas a Sir Abertawe gyda chymorth Fforwm Addysg Amgylcheddol Abertawe (FfAAA) ac arian gan Gyngor Cefn Gwlad Cymru.

Sylwer bod gwybodaeth am ddigwyddiadau a gynhelir gan sefydliadau eraill yn cael ei chyhoeddi'n ddidwyll ac ni fydd Dinas a Sir Abertawe'n derbyn cyfrifoldeb am unrhyw wallau. Am fwy o wybodaeth am sefydliadau lleol, gweler restr y cysylltiadau ar gefn y daflen. Mae'n bosib y rhestrir digwyddiadau ychwanegol ar eu gwefannau.

The diversity of landscapes and habitats include upland moorland, coastal cliffs, sandy beaches, heathland, woodland, wetlands, river valleys, grasslands, sand dunes and estuaries. These habitats, together with the many historic parks and gardens, pockets of urban green-space and large areas of farmland, support a huge diversity of plant and animal species and make Swansea one of the most attractive and ecologically diverse counties in the UK. There are, however, many threats to Swansea’s wonderful biodiversity such as lack of awareness, inappropriate management, recreational pressure, invasive species, pollution, climate change and development. To find out more about biodiversity in Swansea and what you can do to help visit www.swansea.gov.uk/natureconservationteam or make a pledge for biodiversity in Wales at www.biodiversitywales.org.uk. Swansea’s Nature Network Swansea’s Nature Network is an innovative multi-site approach to increasing visitation and economic development across the City and County of Swansea’s community wildlife sites. The project will capitalise on Swansea’s natural environment by promoting and improving access to and enjoyment of a network of wildlife sites and natural open spaces in and around urban Swansea. A wide range of events have been organised throughout the year as part of this project. Swansea’s Nature Network is a project part funded by the European Regional Development Fund through the Welsh Assembly Government and is a component element of the Countryside Council for Wales’ Communities and Nature strategic project. 4 Bioamrywiaeth yn Abertawe Mae amgylchedd naturiol Dinas a Sir Abertawe o ansawdd a harddwch eithriadol. Ymhlith yr amrywiaeth o dirweddau a chynefinoedd mae gweundir uchel, clogwyni arfordirol, traethau tywodlyd, rhostir, coetir, gwlyptiroedd, cymoedd afonydd, glaswelltir, twyni tywod ac aberoedd. Mae'r cynefinoedd hyn, ynghyd â'r llu o barciau a gerddi hanesyddol, mannau gwyrdd trefol ac ardaloedd helaeth o ffermdir, yn cynnal amrywiaeth aruthrol o rywogaethau planhigion ac anifeiliaid ac yn gwneud Abertawe'n un o siroedd mwyaf deniadol ac ecolegol amrywiol y DU. Fodd bynnag, mae bioamrywiaeth ragorol Abertawe’n wynebu llawer o fygythiadau megis diffyg ymwybyddiaeth, rheoli amhriodol, pwysau gweithgareddau hamdden, rhywogaethau ymledol, llygredd, newid yn yr hinsawdd a datblygiadau. I gael mwy o wybodaeth am fioamrywiaeth yn Abertawe a'r hyn y gallwch ei wneud i helpu, ewch i www.abertawe.gov.uk/natureconservationteam neu gwnewch addewid dros fioamrywiaeth yng Nghymru ar www.biodiversitywales.org.uk. Rhwydwaith Natur Abertawe Ymagwedd aml-safle flaengar at gynyddu nifer yr ymwelwyr a'r datblygiadau ar draws safleoedd bywyd gwyllt cymunedol Dinas a Sir Abertawe. Bydd y prosiect yn manteisio ar amgylchedd naturiol Abertawe trwy hyrwyddo a gwella mynediad i rwydwaith o safleoedd bywyd gwyllt a mannau agored naturiol yn Abertawe a'r cylch, a'r cyfle i'w fwynhau. Mae amrywiaeth eang o ddigwyddiadau wedi cael eu trefnu trwy gydol y flwyddyn fel rhan o'r prosiect hwn. Prosiect a ariennir yn rhannol gan Gronfa Datblygu Rhanbarthol Ewrop trwy Lywodraeth Cynulliad Cymru yw Rhwydwaith Natur Abertawe ac mae'n elfen gydrannol o brosiect strategol Cyngor Cefn Gwlad Cymru, Cymunedau a Natur. 5 Everyone Welcome Most events listed are open to anyone.

This note will not form part of the final published SPG. The Purpose of the Document The Council, at its meeting on the 27th January 2016, adopted the Local Development Plan (LDP) which now provides the basis for decisions on land use planning in the County Borough up to 2026. Whilst the LDP contains sufficient information and policies to provide the basis for the determination of planning applications through the development management process, opportunities have been identified throughout the Plan for further detailed guidance to be provided on particular issues. Selective use of SPG is a means of setting out more detailed topic or site specific guidance on the way in which the policies of the LDP will be applied in particular circumstances or areas.
