Grass Fires, Sculpting with Bluestone and Sheep Walking

The issue of deliberate grass fires that have been ravaging the countryside will be the focus of a Welsh government summit this week. We look at the challenges of the fires and the implications for our wildlife.

Inspired by the landscape and working with slate, bronze and Preseli Bluestone Rachael meets Pembrokeshire sculptor Perryn Butler.

Green Exercise - why do we do it and why it's the subject ofa new degree in Outdoor Fitness at the University of Wales Trinity Saint David in Carmarthen.

and sheep - the perfect walking companion! Sheep Trekking is being offered by Good Day Out and proceeds go to the Royal Agricultural Benevolent Institution.
