In support of Women in Marine and to celebrate International Women in Maritime Day, we are excited to announce a special event for all — the Global Women’s Walk 2025 at Cardiff Bay (Penarth side) CF64 1LQ hosted by RYA CW. This event is designed to celebrate women’s achievements in the maritime industry and raise awareness for gender equality, literacy, and learning. As part of our commitment to protect our waters through the Clean Water Sports Alliance we also plan to have a litter pick.

Join us for a relaxed 5km walk around Cardiff Bay, surrounded by the beauty of the marina and coastal landscape. This event is open to all genders and welcomes participants of all fitness levels. This walk is not just an opportunity to get outdoors, but to also show support for women in marine and help create a lasting impact on global literacy and gender equality initiatives.

Each spring, Welsh rivers play host to an important but often unseen conservation effort. As young salmon and sea trout begin their downstream journey to the sea, Natural Resources Wales (NRW) deploys temporary fish monitoring equipment to better understand fish populations and support long-term river management.

Mae etholiad y Senedd yn agosáu'n gyflym, a gallai'r bleidlais ym mis Mai hwn fod yn un o'r adegau pwysicaf yn hanes democrataidd Cymru. Mae cyflwyno'r system bleidleisio gyfrannol, gyda mwy o Aelodau'r Senedd, ffiniau etholaethau newydd ac, yn bwysicach fyth, pleidleiswyr iau, yn gwneud yr etholiad hwn yn arbennig o arwyddocaol. Dyma'ch cyfle i helpu i lunio dyfodol ein cenedl. Os oes gennych yr hawl i bleidleisio, mae'n hanfodol bwysig eich bod yn ei defnyddio.
