The Great Big Nature Survey is all about people and nature.

The Wildlife Trust of South and West Wales, and the other Wildlife Trusts across the UK, want to hear your opinions on some of the biggest questions surrounding nature and our role in caring for it.

At The Wildlife Trust of South & West Wales, we’re passionate about using the Welsh language to connect people with Welsh wildlife. Whatever your ability, we have a range of events where you can learn more about wildlife in Welsh.

WTSWW’s marine monitoring work gathers evidence for critical datasets, used to strengthen the resilience of Wales’ network of protected marine sites and the protection of the marine species found within these sites. Long-term, uninterrupted datasets are particularly important to assess broad population trends, filling knowledge gaps, and informing decisions about use of the marine environment.

Larger and more complex developments are usually decided by the planning committee. Each local planning authority will have its own rules as to which applications will be decided by the planning committee (called the scheme of delegation). You can find out if an application is going to be decided by committee by looking at the application information or by asking the case officer.
