  • Town Tree Cover in Bridgend County Borough
    1 Town Tree Cover in Bridgend County Borough Understanding canopy cover to better plan and manage our urban trees 2 Foreword Introducing a world-first for Wales is a great pleasure, particularly as it relates to greater knowledge about the hugely valuable woodland and tree resource in our towns and cities. We are the first country in the world to have undertaken a country-wide urban canopy cover survey. The resulting evidence base set out in this supplementary county specific study for Bridgend County Borough will help all of us - from community tree interest groups to urban planners and decision-makers in local Emyr Roberts Diane McCrea authorities and our national government - to understand what we need to do to safeguard this powerful and versatile natural asset. Trees are an essential component of our urban ecosystems, delivering a range of services to help sustain life, promote well-being, and support economic benefits. They make our towns and cities more attractive to live in - encouraging inward investment, improving the energy efficiency of buildings – as well as removing air borne pollutants and connecting people with nature. They can also mitigate the extremes of climate change, helping to reduce storm water run-off and the urban heat island. Natural Resources Wales is committed to working with colleagues in the Welsh Government and in public, third and private sector organisations throughout Wales, to build on this work and promote a strategic approach to managing our existing urban trees, and to planting more where they will

Background 1.3 Currently in the Garw Valley as with all other areas in Bridgend, sports and community groups are considering the transfer of sports and community venues and assets from the Council, through the Community Asset Transfer (CAT) process. 1.4 Some of the assets within the Garw Valley are in a poor state of repair and well below an acceptable standard. The cost of repairing and maintaining these assets is beyond the reach of many of the sport and community groups and therefore a potential solution is being sought to ensure that sporting and community activities are not lost. 1.5 To support the CAT process, Reach has already produced a ‘Rural Community Asset Transfer Toolkit’ which provides groups with a step by step guide to asset transfer and also commissioned a report ‘Review of Sustainable Community Venues and Assets in Bridgend County Borough’, which provides a detailed understanding of the issues faced by groups who both currently are or are considering managing/owning/leasing community facilities.
