Volunteering

Valeways works in conjunction with people in the community to enable and promote access to the Vale of Glamorgan. We exist by involving and supporting people of every age and ability in all sections of our work, from practical clearance of routes and footpath installations to indoor administrative duties. We provide support, training, life-long skills and personal development to our expansive range of volunteers.

Vale of Glamorgan Walking Festival

This year the walking festival ran from 5th September 2023 to 10th September 2023. It featured 31 walks of up to 14 miles and several themed walks with local history, geology and more, and attracted around 360 walkers on the various walking events. Termed the 'Friendliest Walking Festival', the festival offers the opportunity to meet like minded walkers, and all walks are guided by experienced walk leaders.

Details concerning the 2024 walking festival will be available in due course on the Vale of Glamorgan Walking Festival website.
