Writing The Wild SPAN is thrilled to share the news that its second Love Stories to Nature environmental commission is underway – Writing the Wild with The Narberth Poets. Join us in this new project to create the ultimate collaborative love poem to Pembrokeshire. Throughout the summer, there will be a poetry treasure hunt, with words to inspire, hidden in diverse locations across the county, with the chance for you to share a thought, a line, a verse or a whole poem in response to being in the landscape. This is an opportunity to pay slow, close attention to our natural surroundings, and wildlife, and to reflect on the impacts of climate change. The possibilities are as varied as the terrain, and you do not need to think of yourself as a ‘writer’ to get involved. Narberth Poets will gather the lines together and weave their magic to create a wild, communal poem in celebration of our county and its environmental treasures. Throughout July and August, these poems will be placed in boxes at their locations with teasers, clues and what3words pins shared across social media. This will be your cue to go wild in response, using the pens and

It’s a true taste of Welsh comfort cooking, and while it’s a classic for March 1st, we happily recommend enjoying it all year round. The red dragon is more than a striking symbol. It carries a legend of conflict, courage and survival. Long ago, the tale tells of two dragons — red and white — whose fierce battles shook the land. Peace only returned when the dragons were finally laid to rest beneath the mountain, and later, when the red dragon rose again to defeat the invading white one. For our celebration, an artist crafted this magnificent dragon puppet as a living piece of storytelling. It was a moving artwork rooted in ancient myth, carried by the community, and shared
