Welcome to CSV Action Earth^TM 2010

All this year's grants have now been allocated. Thanks to everyone who registered projects and all those who took part as volunteers. There are projects taking place until the end of July, so there's still time to volunteer!

Action Earth is a campaign co-ordinated by CSV Environment. The purpose of the campaign is to enable people to take part in practical conservation projects and empower them to improve quality of life for themselves, their communities and future generations.

We are grateful to Morrisons and Scottish Natural Heritage for their continued sponsorship of the campaign.

The Physicians of Myddfai

We have an interesting project coming up on the 17th May surrounding the legend of The Physicians Of Myddfai. A school based in Rumney, South Glamorgan are due to create a herb garden based on the herbs that the Physicians used for their remedies.

If you don't know the legend then you can go to http://www.stonetemple.co.uk/myddfai.htm to find out more about the facts and the legend, as well even making your own remedies.

We'll keep you updated and may have some photos and more information showing how the school got on with their Action Earth project.
