LLANDRINDOD Wells’ summer programme - ‘Haf Llandrindod’ - has begun with an exciting installation at the town’s popular lake.
Hearts have appeared on the ground to encourage people back to green spaces.
They aim to encourage locals and tourists alike to share time together and enjoy the outdoors.
With social distancing, people may be unsure about how and where to spend time outdoors together and safely.
Holiday co-ordinator, with Play Radnor, Ellie Turner was thrilled with the installation.
She said: “The isolation caused by lockdown and continued social distancing can be a real challenge for people.
“This installation creates a fun and friendly place for people to spend time together and enjoy the outdoors which is so beneficial for people’s physical and mental health and wellbeing.
“We are so grateful to Powys County Council for being positive about making this happen and for being so supportive of the whole project.’
The idea for the hearts came from an installation in Bristol which was also encouraging people back to public green spaces.”
Haf Llandrindod is part of the Llandrindod Wells Working Together Project, which supports working families and is run by Severn Wye.
It is funded by the National Lottery Community Fund.
