See our Inspired by the coast page to see how, with the help of poets, painters, potters and other independent artists across the south west, we are celebrating different perspectives on what the Coast Path means to people.
Congratulations to Jeanie Blackall who has won the Active Devon Volunteer Award for the North Devon District and Torridge area. Jeanie came up with the idea of starting a walking group for people who had lost their life partners and mentioned this to our Coast Path Connectors Project Officer Huw who thought it was wonderful and provided advice and support to help set up the group. From this meeting and from Jeanie’s hard work Healing Steps was formed.
Volunteers working for the charity that champions the South West Coast Path have been recognised through The King’s Award for Voluntary Service for 2024. This is the highest award a voluntary group can receive in the UK and is equivalent to an MBE. The organisation was founded by volunteers over 50 years ago and they still play a vital role in looking after this world-class trail.
On Thursday 26th September the South West Coast Path International Friendship Trail was opened at Maple Cross Nature Reserve, Cape Chin in Canada.
