The past week has been another good one for the Community Team. With myself and volunteers helping out at events. We all enjoyed time spent at the St David’s Day Market in Cardiff city centre. As the weather had been so bad recently, the organisers kindly took action and put up the wooden sheds which makes life easier for us during these cold months.

I can’t say we enjoyed the conditions on Abergavenny High Street on the same Friday though. I went to experience the day in the life of a recruiter, and can honestly say it’s no easy job. We survived two hours under the slight shelter of the marquee and made three memberships for our time.

Next week we are trying something new and attending the monthly Market at the Office for National Statistics, Government Buildings in Newport. As ever, we love a challenge and can’t wait to see what kinds of people we will encounter on our travels. We will be here on Tuesday 11 March.

On Wednesday 12 March we will be up by the counters again at IKEA Cardiff Bay, and Friday returning to the Bay for another new idea of ours – World of Boats. With the stunning views seen across the Bay we hope that we’re onto a good thing. Thank you to the owners for allowing us to come and meet with their visitors.

Also look out for us at ASDA Ystalyfera Swansea on Friday and Saturday.

If you run, or go to, any events and you think we would add something to your customers or visitors experience, please get in touch with me by email Stephanie.hall@rspb.org.uk
