People’s postcode lottery players raise over £50m

Badger vaccination: Support from
players has ensured vaccination as
alternative to culling.
THE WILDLIFE TRUST of South and West Wales is delighted to confirm that players of People’s Postcode Lottery have now raised an amazing £51.4million for charities and good causes since the lottery’s launch in 2008. The money has made a massive difference to hundreds of communities with funding awarded to numerous grass route groups and local projects as well as national and international charities. Players of People’s Postcode Lottery support The Wildlife Trust of South and West Wales, one of six Wildlife Trusts in Wales to receive this funding.
In recent years, The Wildlife Trust of South and West Wales has been able to carry out an extensive badger vaccination thanks to players. The woodlands at the Castle Woods nature reserve at Dinefwr Park in Llandeilo are home to a significant number of badger setts where rare breed cattle also graze on adjacent pasture land, including the fertile Tywi Valley.
The Wildlife Trusts are firmly opposed to the culling of badgers and would never support or facilitate badger culling on its land. The five year vaccination project has received tremendous support from the public and Wildlife Trust members. Over the last four years, Wildlife Trusts Wales has received over £357,000 thanks to players of People’s Postcode Lottery. This has allowed the six Wildlife Trusts across Wales to continue their vital conservation work to protect nature for the future.
The trusts have used the funding to deliver educational opportunities and events for local communities and schools, as well as maintaining nature reserves across the country. Sarah Kessell, Chief Executive for The Wildlife Trust of South and West Wales, said: “The support from players means that we continue to use badger vaccination as an alternative to culling. We believe it is the only sustainable approach to reducing the disease burden in badgers that actually works towards a TB-free Wales.
We’re so grateful for this support and we would like to thank each and every player for their contribution to Welsh wildlife.” People’s Postcode Lottery and their sister lotteries in the Netherlands and Sweden were collectively announced as the second largest charitable private donor in the world, according to British business-focused newspaper City AM. In total over £4.9 billion has been awarded to good causes across the globe.

Milford paddling pool could close after rowdy adults seen throwing glass bottles
MILFORD HAVEN TOWN COUNCIL has warned that the town’s paddling pool could be drained and closed if anti-social behaviour continues.
The warning follows an incident today in which rowdy adults were reportedly drinking alcohol from glass bottles inside the pool enclosure and throwing a glass bottle around.
The council also said people were seen smoking cannabis just outside the gate.
In a statement, Milford Haven Town Council said the behaviour was “highly dangerous, irresponsible and inconsiderate” and “cannot and will not be tolerated”.
The council warned: “If this sort of behaviour continues we will have no choice but to consider draining and closing the pool.”
The paddling pool is run voluntarily by a dedicated group of councillors for the benefit of local families and visitors.
The council is now urging people to act responsibly so the facility can remain open and be enjoyed safely by everyone.
