A Community-Driven Vision for the Future

A bold new outline of community ambitions to protect and restore the River Teifi has been unveiled today with the launch of the People’s Plan for the Teifi. Developed with input from over 300 people within local communities, the plan sets out a shared vision for the river’s future—one that prioritises ecological health, sustainable management, and community involvement.

The River Teifi, one of Wales’ most iconic waterways, supports diverse wildlife, plays a role in local livelihoods, and holds deep cultural and historical significance. However, like many rivers, it faces increasing pressures from pollution, climate change, and unsustainable land use. The People’s Plan is a response to these challenges, offering a practical roadmap to safeguard the Teifi for generations to come.
