Avoid:
Lighting BBQs in parks/forests/countryside
Setting off fireworks
Leaving glass bottles or litter that could start a fire
Discarding ci******es or matches on the ground

Let's keep our green spaces safe 💚

Save Nant Mill - Our Community Can Make This Happen

Nant Mill has been a favourite place for generations - from school trips to weekend walks, wildlife sessions to community events. Since its closure in 2018, many people have asked how it could be reopened.

Now, we finally have the chance.

The Nant Mill Community Trust has the opportunity of a long lease to restore and run the site. Nant Mill is part of a major £1.7m regeneration of the Clywedog Valley, led by Groundwork North Wales.

To unlock £1.26m of potential National Lottery funding, the project needs match funding — and Nant Mill Community Trust’s share to raise is £40,000.

This money will help reopen the visitor centre, develop new learning and wildlife displays, reconnect Nant Mill to the wider Clywedog Valley Trail, and support our vision for the future of the site.

If you can donate - thank you.
If you can share - thank you.
Together, we can bring Nant Mill back to life.
