Volunteer wellbeing is a priority at SWA. We emphasise the importance of holding strong boundaries and prioritising self care so we can feel fulfilled and proud of the work we do whilst finding balance with our life outside of volunteering. We also have the Wild Women project where we meet up twice a month for nature wellbeing gathering such as sea dips, farming days, walks, sound baths, drumming, and more! ... See MoreSee Less

What a beautifully peaceful evening we shared yesterday with our Wild Women community! With the gentle sound of the waves and the calming tones of crystal singing bowls, we were gifted to a deeply peaceful experience, thanks to the generosity and talent of @soundbathswansea . We’re so grateful for this special moment of stillness and connection — a rare and nourishing pause that reminded us how important calm is in our busy lives.We’d love you to join us for our next Wild Women gathering: a sea dip to celebrate the summer solstice on Wednesday 25th June at 5:30pm, meeting by the slip at Langland Bay. ...
