About this cause

The Myrtle Community Association is a rekindled organisation with an overarching interest in seeing the Castle Pill woodland area flourish once again as a community asset, with users empowered to protect and enjoy it in its natural state. Our target individuals are local children and youth, users requiring natural solace for personal reasons and individuals looking to reconnect with nature. Our key focus areas will be accessibility, youth engagement, environmental conservation and community well-being. We believe these complementary objectives will work in unity to create a pleasant woodland escape on the doorstep of Milford Haven which can serve as an educational forum as well as a community space for enjoying the natural environment.

How this cause brings people in the community together

It will be social, economic and cultural benefit to the community (inc schools, health groups, minority groups). It will engage, empower and educate local adults and youth through outdoor activities. This will facilitate social inclusion, skills learning, health and well-being and environmental awareness which will contribute to a sustainable project which instigates long term community benefit.
