Did a #SlowWays walk today: NarTen One (Narberth ➡️ Tenby, Pembrokeshire).
Flooding meant a detour, but the scenery was gorgeous and the walk thoroughly enjoyable.

Slow Ways is a brilliant initiative—helping walkers feel confident that routes are safe, accessible, and worth exploring.

Why not take it slow yourself and try a route?

Welsh Government says South West Wales bathing waters rated ‘excellent’ – but sewage and pollution issues cast shadow

The 2025 results, published this week, show that 98% of bathing waters across Wales met strict environmental standards following monitoring by Natural Resources Wales (NRW). Officials say the findings demonstrate the resilience of Wales’s beaches and the success of ongoing efforts to protect water quality.

Deputy First Minister Huw Irranca‑Davies said the results reflected “our commitment to protecting water quality” and praised communities and partners for working together towards a cleaner Wales.

Mary Lewis, Head of Natural Resource Management at NRW, added:

“Our wonderful beaches and bathing waters are an important part of Wales’s identity and culture… The results reflect the dedication of our teams, partners, environmental groups and communities who protect and care for our environment.”

Local results at a glance

Sewage spills and enforcement fines temper the good news

While the classifications are positive, they come against a backdrop of ongoing public concern about water quality.

Residents in Gower have repeatedly voiced frustration over sewage spills affecting popular beaches, saying they feel “pooped off” by the frequency of incidents. Campaigners argue that these spills undermine public confidence in official bathing water ratings.

💧 What do bathing water ratings mean?

Excellent
The highest standard. Water quality is consistently very good, giving strong reassurance for swimmers and visitors.

Good
Meets high standards but with occasional dips in quality. Still safe for bathing, though less consistent than ‘excellent’ sites.

Sufficient
Passes the minimum EU and UK requirements. Bathing is permitted, but water quality may be variable and less reliable.

Poor
Fails to meet the required standards. Official advice is against bathing due to risks to health.

Who sets the ratings?
Natural Resources Wales monitors designated bathing waters during the season (May–September) and classifies them under Welsh Government regulations.

Why it matters:
Ratings guide public health advice, tourism confidence and environmental management. They reflect long‑term monitoring, not just daily conditions.

Rivers and coastlines under pressure

Beyond the beaches, rivers in South West Wales have also been highlighted as pollution hotspots. The River Tawe was recently ranked among the most sewage‑affected in the UK, raising questions about how inland water quality connects to coastal bathing standards.

In Pembrokeshire, warnings have been issued about sewage pollution at popular beaches, prompting local MPs to challenge regulators and water companies during Welsh Affairs Committee hearings.

Calls for reform and a sewage action plan

The wider debate has led to growing political pressure. Campaigners and politicians, including Welsh MPs, have called for a national sewage action plan to tackle pollution at its source. At the same time, Welsh Government has outlined plans to overhaul water regulation, promising reforms that put “people, the environment and future generations at its heart.”

Deputy First Minister Huw Irranca‑Davies acknowledged that climate change and heavy rainfall — including 170% of average levels in September — can significantly affect water quality. He said maintaining standards will require “sustained investment, innovation, and partnership working across all sectors.”

A mixed picture for South West Wales

The headline figures show South West Wales beaches performing strongly, with almost all rated ‘excellent’. But the wider context of sewage spills, enforcement fines and river pollution means the story is more complex.

For swimmers and visitors, the classifications provide reassurance about water quality at designated sites. Yet campaigners insist that behind the ratings lies a system under strain, with regulators, water companies and government facing mounting pressure to deliver lasting improvements.

Pembrokeshire vets swap surgery for the sea in pink yacht charity challenge

The all‑female crew, known as The Pink Puffins, have taken part in dozens of races over the past six months aboard a 24ft Achilles yacht, transformed into a vivid pink head‑turner to spark conversations about breast cancer.

The yacht was gifted to skipper Charlotte Hamilton by her husband to help her build confidence ahead of a planned round‑the‑world voyage delivering veterinary care to animals in remote communities. What began as a personal project quickly grew into a fundraising mission in memory of loved ones affected by breast cancer.

From novices to racers

Charlotte, an experienced sailor who previously crewed in the 2017 Fastnet Race, led a team of colleagues, friends and supporters — many of whom had never set foot on a yacht before.

“Most of our crew have never sailed before. Each week we welcomed several complete novices onboard, and I taught them to sail from scratch, which made the experience even more special,” she said.

The Pink Puffins competed in weekly races on the River Cleddau, organised by Pembroke Haven Yacht Club and Neyland Yacht Club, as well as endurance events including a gruelling 15‑hour round trip to Tenby.

Community support

Staff from across Fenton Vets — including vets, nurses, receptionists and managers — joined the crew at various points during the season. A special day’s sailing was even dedicated to practice staff, including Joy Williams, who recently celebrated 50 years at the practice.

The team capped their season with a quiz and raffle night, raising £800 and bringing their fundraising total to nearly £2,500.

Sailing in memory

Charlotte said the challenge was deeply personal:

“We have been sailing in memory of my friend, Connie Johncock, who lived with metastatic breast cancer for 10 years before sadly passing away. Connie was a trustee of METUPUK and a passionate advocate for improving outcomes for women with metastatic breast cancer. We also raced in honour of my mum, who has successfully undergone treatment.”

Funds raised will be split between Breast Cancer Now, the UK’s largest breast cancer charity, and METUPUK, the country’s only patient advocacy group dedicated to metastatic breast cancer.

Looking ahead

Although the yacht is now coming out of the water for winter, The Pink Puffins hope to return to racing next year. Charlotte also plans to embark on a charity round‑the‑world veterinary mission with her husband within the next two years.

“Any donation, and all the cheers from the shore, made a huge difference. Our pink yacht is impossible to miss, and we hope it’s helped spark conversations about breast cancer,” she added.

Supporters can donate via the team’s fundraising page: gofundme.com/f/sailing-for-breast-cancer

Llanelli mayor blasts WRU over Scarlets future as town rallies behind ‘Save Our Scarlets’ march

‘Clueless’ leadership

Councillor Andrew Bragoli, a lifelong Scarlets supporter who describes the late Phil Bennett as his “idol and hero”, accused the WRU of being “clueless” and failing both the regions and grassroots clubs.

“They have mismanaged regional rugby in Wales in general. They haven’t helped the grassroots teams like Furnace, Trimsaran, Felinfoel, Llangennech, Tumble and Tenby,” he said.

“The WRU haven’t looked after the regions – Scarlets, Ospreys, Cardiff and the Dragons – so the national team is now suffering. We don’t want to see any region disappear.”

Cllr Bragoli said the union had been “narrow‑sighted”, relying on the success of the national side while neglecting the pathway from community rugby into the professional game.

Call for English league switch

The mayor suggested the best way forward would be for the Scarlets, Ospreys and Cardiff to join the English league system, with the Dragons remaining in the United Rugby Championship.

“Nothing in Welsh rugby has the passion of Scarlets versus Ospreys. We must both survive. And derby games against Bristol, Bath and Gloucester would boost attendances and bring atmosphere and rivalry with travelling fans,” said Cllr Bragoli, who has attended more than 1,000 Scarlets matches.

March to Parc y Scarlets

He urged local people to join the Save Our Scarlets march this Saturday, ahead of the home game against Munster. The march will leave Sandy Water Park at 1pm, led by Scarlets heritage director Rupert Moon, and will pass through Llanelli town centre before arriving at Parc y Scarlets.

The town council has also commissioned buses to bring local choirs to the stadium, with renditions of Sospan Fach and Yma O Hyd planned as part of a festival‑style build‑up.

Council united

Fellow councillor Shaun Greaney said:

“We cannot allow the demise of the Scarlets. It would be an act of cultural and sporting vandalism on a near criminal scale. Our area cannot afford the economic decimation the loss of 400 plus jobs would mean.”

Town council leader David Darkin confirmed the council had written to the WRU in the “strongest terms” and voted unanimously to back the campaign.

“Our position reflects the love the town has for the Scarlets. The region is part of our very identity,” he said.

Petition gathers pace

Nearly 5,500 people have signed an online petition calling for the WRU to safeguard the Scarlets’ future. The petition describes the club as “a cornerstone of our community, a symbol of local pride, and a source of inspiration for young athletes”.

It highlights Sport Wales figures estimating rugby contributes more than £200 million a year to the Welsh economy and supports over 4,000 jobs, with the Scarlets playing a key role in that ecosystem.

Calls for major rebuild as more than 700 building faults uncovered at Tenby’s Ysgol Greenhill

School faces infrastructure crisis despite academic progress

A report to Pembrokeshire County Council’s Schools & Learning Overview and Scrutiny Committee this week warns that extensive building improvements — or even a completely new school — may be required at Ysgol Greenhill, Tenby.

The secondary school, which educates around 900 pupils, has been led by headteacher David Haynes since 2021. Under his leadership, the school was removed from special measures in 2024 following significant improvements in teaching and leadership.

But despite the academic turnaround, councillors are being told that the physical condition of the school is now a major concern.

Over 700 faults identified

An inspection by the Schools Scrutiny Panel in July found more than 700 building defects, ranging from structural issues to maintenance failures.

Emergency works began in May 2025, with a contract worth more than £0.5m awarded for urgent repairs. The council has said every effort is being made to minimise disruption to teaching and exams while the work continues.

Concerns raised by pupils and staff

During the panel visit, both staff and pupils highlighted the poor state of the premises, though acknowledged that construction work was underway at the time.

The report also noted:

• Welsh language provision remains limited, with pupils saying they would like to see it more integrated across lessons.
• Attendance continues to be a challenge post‑Covid, with the school working with its cluster to improve figures.
• Reading standards among incoming Year 7 pupils are a concern, with guided reading sessions and assessments being introduced to help pupils catch up.

Praise for leadership but call for long‑term plan

The panel praised Mr Haynes’ “strong leadership” and the school’s strengthened cluster partnerships, particularly with Narberth CP School on Welsh language development.

However, councillors are being advised to prioritise long‑term funding and strategic planning for the site, including the possibility of a new school build.

The report also recommends:

• Expanding partnerships beyond the current cluster
• Providing resources for bilingual signage and Welsh‑language enrichment
• Earlier reading assessments in primary schools to support transition

Background: urgent works already underway

According to Pembrokeshire County Council, urgent structural works began in May 2025 and are expected to continue into the new academic year. Parents were informed directly by the headteacher, with assurances that safety and learning continuity remain the priority.

£3m Welsh Government fund to boost museums, libraries and archives across South West Wales

The investment, part of the Priorities for Culture Capital Grant Scheme, is designed to make cultural spaces more accessible, sustainable and welcoming. Culture Minister Jack Sargeant said the aim was to protect “vital community assets” and ensure they continue to serve as visitor attractions, learning hubs and wellbeing spaces.

Swansea: lighting up the city’s heritage

In Swansea, the city’s oldest museum will be literally brighter. Swansea Museum is receiving funding for its Illuminate project, which will replace outdated lighting in the History Gallery and temporary exhibition space with modern, energy‑efficient systems. Swansea University’s cultural collections will also benefit, with new environmental monitoring and accessibility improvements to safeguard rare items and open them up to more visitors.

Neath Port Talbot: greener libraries

In Neath Port Talbot, Baglan Library will undergo building improvements with new front windows to boost energy efficiency and create a more comfortable space for readers and community groups.

Bridgend: preserving and delivering culture

Porthcawl Museum will use its grant to conserve artefacts and refresh exhibitions, working alongside Glamorgan Archives. Meanwhile, the Awen Cultural Trust, which runs libraries across Bridgend county, will make its Books on Wheels service more sustainable by switching to a zero‑emission electric vehicle to deliver books to housebound residents.

Carmarthenshire: archives and museums reimagined

Carmarthenshire is seeing some of the most ambitious projects. Carmarthenshire Archives will create a new exhibition space to bring hidden collections into public view. At Carmarthenshire Museum, two projects will improve both physical and digital access: new interpretation and lighting in galleries, and a revamp of the CofGar website to make collections easier to explore online.

At Dinefwr’s Newton House, run by the National Trust, visitors will benefit from new lifts, braille interpretation and audio‑visual guides, ensuring the historic site is accessible to all.

Pembrokeshire: Tenby’s new chapter

In Pembrokeshire, Tenby Museum & Art Gallery will transform a storage area into a new public gallery, creating space for fresh interpretation and exhibitions.

A wider vision for culture

The Welsh Government says the £3m is just the first wave of investment, with a further £2.5m available for bids over the next year and £15m in total to be distributed by March 2026.

The Priorities for Culture strategy emphasises that culture is not just about heritage, but about regeneration, inclusivity and wellbeing. From greener libraries to more accessible museums, the projects in South West Wales reflect that ambition.

Poor broadband and mobile signal ‘costing rural Welsh tourism millions’

A UK‑wide study by VodafoneThree estimates that tourism‑related small and medium‑sized enterprises (SMEs) in Wales are losing up to £69 million annually in potential revenue due to patchy connectivity.

The research looked at 50 UK staycation hotspots — including Tenby, Porthcawl and New Quay — and found that better broadband and mobile signal could boost takings for Welsh tourism traders by thousands of pounds each year.

While the study focused on named destinations, the findings are likely to apply to other rural and coastal areas in South West Wales, such as Gower, Laugharne, Saundersfoot and the Pembrokeshire Coast, where visitors often report poor signal and slow internet speeds.

Impact on local businesses

According to the research, 17% of Welsh tourism SMEs said poor connectivity stopped them taking full advantage of this year’s extra footfall, while 7% said they actually lost business because of it.

With more than two‑thirds of tourism businesses relying on social media to attract customers, poor signal can limit marketing reach, slow down online bookings and payments, and frustrate visitors expecting reliable Wi‑Fi.

The report suggests that with improved connectivity, many businesses would:

• Increase social media marketing
• Offer better customer Wi‑Fi
• Introduce online booking or virtual queuing systems
• Use AI‑powered customer support tools

Potential gains

The study estimates that:

• Tenby’s 210 tourism SMEs could each gain around £34,000 a year with better connectivity
• Porthcawl’s 235 SMEs could see an extra £42,000 each
• New Quay’s 110 traders could gain nearly £40,000 each

Applied to similar‑sized destinations in South West Wales, the figures suggest a significant untapped economic boost for the region’s tourism sector.

Andrea Donà, Chief Network Officer at VodafoneThree, said:

“Tourism plays a critical role in boosting local economies across the UK, with improved connectivity accelerating their growth to the tune of £1.5 billion a year. That’s why we’re investing £11 billion in building a network that provides reliable, quality connectivity to all corners of the UK — particularly in rural and coastal areas where demand surges during the summer months.”

Discount chain Poundland sold for £1

Pepco Group say Poundland have been sold to Gordon Brothers for the nominal sum of £1.

Gordon Brothers is a global investment firm which formerly owned fashion label Laura Ashley. It says it will invest up to £80m in Poundland to help turn the business around.

As part of the transaction, Gordon Brothers, Pepco Group and Poundland have agreed to put forward a restructuring plan which is likely to look at store closures and reducing the company’s rent bill – details of this to be announced “in due course” Pepco have said.

Pepco has previously said that it’s struggling Poundland stores were “operating in an increasingly challenging UK retail landscape that is only intensifying”. It warned that increased employer National Insurance contributions which kicked in in April have added pressure on the chain.

Poundland has been struggling to compete with other discounters, with sales down in January and February this year.

Poundland started in Burton-on-Trent in 1990 and has since grown to over 800 stores across the UK and Ireland, employing around 16,000 people.

Locally, it has stores in Haverfordwest and Tenby in Pembrokeshire; Carmarthen, Ammanford and Llanelli in Carmarthenshire; Fforestfach, Morfa and the city centre in Swansea; Neath and Aberavon in Neath Port Talbot; and Maesteg, Porthcawl and Bridgend in Bridgend County.  

Pepco branded shops opened in Poland in 2004, expanding into Czechia and Slovakia in 2013 with further expansion into Croatia, Hungary, Lithuania, Romania and Slovenia between 2015 and 2017. Additional stores opened in Latvia, Estonia, Bulgaria, Italy, Serbia, Spain, Austria and Germany from 2018.

Pepco Group was formed following the company’s acquisition of Poundland in 2015 and is listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange.

Pepco say that as part of the sale all stores, colleagues, assets and liabilities of the Poundland business will move under Gordon Brothers’ ownership as part of the transaction.

Pepco Group expects to obtain a minority investment interest in Poundland, subject to the proposed restructuring of Poundland being sanctioned by the High Court in England.

Under this new ownership, the business will be led by Barry Williams, currently Managing Director of Poundland. The business will continue to operate under the Poundland brand in the United Kingdom and under the Dealz brand in the Isle of Man and Republic of Ireland

Stephan Borchert, Pepco Group CEO commented: “The agreed sale of Poundland marks an important milestone in our strategic plan to… focus predominantly on Pepco, our higher margin clothing and general merchandise business.

“This transaction will strongly support our accelerated value creation programme by simplifying the Group and focusing on our successful Pepco business. I am confident that Pepco has the right foundations to be one of Europe’s most successful discount retailers, delivering customer satisfaction, profitable growth and shareholder value.

“Poundland remains a key player in UK discount retail, with millions of customers annually and a well-loved brand and proposition. We want to sincerely thank all the Poundland team for their ongoing commitment and contribution to the Group and wish Barry Williams and his team all the best for the future.”
