This #WorldRiversDay we’re shining a light on our mine water treatment schemes across Britain which collectively treat over 220 billion litres of water each year. Helping to remove coal and metal mine water pollution from our rivers, allowing vital marine ecosystems to thrive.

In March @cityofarcades_ launched a poetry competition, with the brief ‘a celebration of Cardiff’. My winning poem is now displayed in Morgan Arcade, alongside commissioned Welsh poets. Having grown up, and now living in Cardiff, it is a very special win. Thank you, happy days.
