A free guided walk to learn about fungi takes place this weekend in Cwmbran.
It’s on Saturday 30 September in Blaen Bran Community Wooland. The organisers, In Our Nature, said on the booking page: “Take a Moment and join us for a gentle guided walk around Blaen Bran Community Woodland where we’ll be joined by Fungi Expert Vince Murphy to learn the basics about Fungi ID, in an area where over 86 species have been found, so there should be plenty get us started. Contact with nature has been proven to be beneficial both physically and psychologically for a wide range of people, particularly for those experiencing chronic mental health issues, such as anxiety and depression.”
