The Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Trust is looking for help from the public to create more habitats for pollinators. The aim is to raise £10,000 to help protect and restore the existing meadows in the National Park, and to work with landowners to create new ones.
During the last 75 years the UK has lost over 95% of its wildflower meadows, turning them into one of our rarest habitats. It has also resulted in fewer places for flowers, insects and other wildlife to grow and thrive.
Director of the Trust, Jessica Morgan, said: “What many don’t realise is that the plight of pollinators has a direct impact on the food we eat. As well as adding colour to the landscape, wildflower meadows are crucial habitats for insects, which play an essential role in pollinating fruits and vegetables.
“Donating just £5 could help conserve over 400 square metres of meadow in the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park for a year.”
Donations of £5 can be made by texting ‘MOREMEADOWS’ to 70085. Texts will be charged at your standard rate. Alternatively donations can be made by calling 01646 624808 and referencing the Make More Meadows appeal, or online at www.pembrokeshirecoasttrust.wales.
The Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Trust was set up to promote the conservation of the National Park’s stunning landscape and wildlife, enhance its unique and distinctive attributes as well as safeguarding its exceptional qualities for future generations.

Creu Mwy o Ddolydd gydag Ymddiriedolaeth Parc Cenedlaethol Arfordir Penfro
Mae Ymddiriedolaeth Parc Cenedlaethol Arfordir Penfro yn chwilio am help gan y cyhoedd i greu mwy o gynefinoedd ar gyfer pryfed peillio. Y bwriad yw codi £10,000 i helpu i ddiogelu ac adfer y dolydd sy’n bodoli yn y Parc Cenedlaethol ac i weithio gyda thirfeddianwyr i greu dolydd newydd.
Yn ystod y 75 mlynedd diwethaf, mae’r DU wedi colli dros 95% o’i dolydd o flodau gwyllt, gan eu troi yn un o’n cynefinoedd mwyaf prin. Mae hefyd wedi arwain at lai o lefydd i flodau, pryfed a bywyd gwyllt eraill dyfu a ffynnu.
Dywedodd Jessica Morgan, Cyfarwyddwr yr Ymddiriedolaeth: “Dydy llawer o bobl ddim yn sylweddoli bod helynt y pryfed peillio yn effeithio’n uniongyrchol ar y bwyd rydyn ni’n ei fwyta. Yn ogystal ag ychwanegu lliw at ein tirlun, mae dolydd o flodau gwyllt yn gynefinoedd hollbwysig ar gyfer pryfed peillio, sy’n hanfodol i beillio ffrwythau a llysiau.
“Gallai rhoi dim ond £5 helpu i warchod dros 400 metr sgwâr o ddolydd ym Mharc Cenedlaethol Arfordir Penfro am flwyddyn.”
Gallwch roi £5 drwy anfon ‘MOREMEADOWS’ mewn neges destun i 70085. Codir cyfradd safonol am negeseuon testun. Neu gallwch roi drwy ffonio 01646 624808 a chyfeirio at apêl Creu Mwy o Ddolydd, neu ar-lein yn www.ymddiriedolaetharfordirpenfro.cymru.
Cafodd Ymddiriedolaeth Parc Cenedlaethol Arfordir Penfro ei sefydlu i hybu’r gwaith o warchod tirwedd a bywyd gwyllt trawiadol y Parc Cenedlaethol, gwella ei nodweddion unigryw ac arbennig, yn ogystal â diogelu ei briodweddau eithriadol ar gyfer cenedlaethau’r dyfodol.
I gael rhagor o wybodaeth am yr Ymddiriedolaeth a sut i gyfrannu, cysylltwch â Jessica Morgan ar 01646 624808 neu anfonwch e-bost at jessicam@pembrokeshirecoast.org.uk.
