The Grassland ID workshops, organised by Ceredigion Nature Partnership in 2025 were a great success, and showed a fantastic working partnership between the Ysgol Gynradd Aberteifi, Friends of Netpool Park, West Wales Biodiversity Information Centre and the Partnership.
What has inspired Stori Wyllt in addition to the great work at Netpool Park has been the collaboration between the school, Wales & West Housing Assocation and Cardished to create wildlife habitat with residents and students. WWHA received a Small Grant from the Partnership for wildlife enhancements across their Ceredigion properties, and this included the creation of bug hotels with the students from Ysgol Gynradd Aberteifi and the residents of Llys Owen, with a workshop run by Harry from Cardished.
Cardished are an Aberteifi-based charity working with a whole range of Cardigan residents, using local and recycled wood for a whole range of projects. They have recently teamed up with Ceredigion Nature Partnership to build nest boxes, bat boxes. bug hotels and bee hotels. Their workshop at Llys Owen was a major success, and the students proved particularly swift at assembling the hotels!
