Imagine, if this beautiful lesser celandine carpet disappeared
IT WILL, if we as a community don’t raise the funds! bulldozed,500 holiday chalets & a carpark with a 1000 spaces! To visualise a 1000 space carpark
that’s:
4-5 full scale football pitches of tarmac!

Delighted to be a LONDON Regional & Country Finalist for SMALL PRESS OF THE YEAR in #BritishBookAwards
the London list is quite long, but - regional winners announced 10th March.
Our submission rests on success of #Afonydd
@inpressbooks.bsky.social @nessowen.bsky.social @llyfraucymru.bsky.social
Our most ordered books this month are #Afonydd and #A470. Worried someone may have already got a copy for the #Cymraeg #Welsh Poetry lover in your life? you could order #Mamiaith or Naming the Trees by @nessowen.bsky.social mostly in English with a core of Welsh poems @llyfraucymru.bsky.social
a rather lopsided 'christmas tree' made of books with a welsh red dragon instead of a star at the top, on a gold background. the books are A voice coming from then, Afonydd, Mamiaith, Naming the Trees and A470 there are baubles as well.
