River Landscape Discovery Guide for Frome Valley
Herefordshire and Worcestershire Earth Heritage Trust (EHT) with funding from LEADER+ has produced a Discovery Guide for the Frome valley, in a yearlong project. This describes the geology, beautiful landscape and effects of the ice age to be seen along the river. As well as geological information, the guide includes: Photographs, maps, diagrams, pictures and details of places to stay. The Discovery Guide will be made available for local communities along the Frome valley and distributed to schools, libraries, museums, community centres and Tourist Information Centres. No prior knowledge of geology is necessary to use this guide. Talks and guided walks were organised as part the project and 8 Regionally Important Geological / Geomorphological Sites (RIGS) have been designated. If you would like to buy a copy of the Discovery Guide, please send a cheque for £2 plus 70p Postage and Packing, made out to Herefordshire and Worcestershire Earth Heritage Trust to: Herefordshire and Worcestershire Earth Heritage Trust, Geological Records Centre, University of Worcester, Henwick Grove, Worcester WR2 6AJ Tel: (01905) 855184 Fax: (01905) 855132 Email: eht@worc.ac.uk |

Natural England has made an award to the Trust from the Aggregates Levy Sustainability Fund to develop geological trails that 'Walking the way to Health' groups can use as part of their established programmes. Four routes along parts of the Geopark Way are to be researched in partnership with the established walking groups. Promotion of geology and landscape as an enjoyable and educational part of walking is in the project as is the production of simple leaflets for participants. As well as the walking groups there are three Geopark partners participating in the project — Shropshire Geological Society, Gloucestershire Geology Trust and ourselves. A great way to improve your health and stay fit. Look out for the leaflets.
