RSPB Cymru is seeking to recruit a Programme Manager (maternity cover), to lead the Living Levels Partnership Scheme (RSPB led) on the Gwent Levels, funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund.

On 23 February, over 160 people turned out to Magor Marsh to learn about some ancient willow craft skills of the Levels in an event organised by the Living Levels Partnership and Gwent Wildlife Trust.

Thanks to the coordinated efforts of partners and volunteers, nearly two tonnes of fly-tipping and litter was removed from Green Lane, Marshfield over two days in November.

As part of the Living Levels Black Spots to Bright Spots project, the partners are organising a clear up of the reen on November 8th on Green Lane and a community litter pick up on Friday 9th November from 09:30am-11.45am.

Our flagship event was part of Cadw’s Open Doors month and took place on September 29th and attracted 1032 visitors.

Thanks to Heritage Lottery funding, we are proud to announce that we have been able to support 12 agricultural contractors local to the Gwent Levels to take part in the Construction Plant Competence Scheme (CPCS).

Would you like to lead a fantastic project under the Living Levels Landscape Partnership programme which will capture and record the memories of a range of different communities living in the historic and unique Gwent Levels landscape?
