New Research Targets Travel-to-Work Barriers in Tenby
A new survey led by Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority is calling on tourism businesses, employees and jobseekers to help identify transport barriers affecting access to seasonal work in Tenby. The project is part of the authority's wider approach to promoting sustainable transport and is funded through the Welsh Government's Sustainable Landscapes, Sustainable Places programme. It is being delivered by transport consultants Martin Higgitt Associates and will run across the 2025 visitor season, concluding in the autumn. The research focuses on the challenges faced by businesses trying to recruit staff, and by individuals who currently work – or would like to work – in Tenby, but struggle with transport access. The results will help assess potential solutions such as worker' bus services, shared taxi schemes, or lift-sharing arrangements. Cllr Sam Skyrme-Blackhall, Councillor for Tenby South Ward and a Member of the Park Authority, said: 'This research could help identify how big a problem travel access is in staff accessing jobs and businesses recruiting staff – and how resolving these issues could help Tenby businesses to prosper. In doing so, it may give some useful insights to other places along the Pembrokeshire coast and beyond.' A further strand of the study will be exploring the potential for enhanced visitor bus services along the B4318 corridor, improving access to key destinations such as Heatherton World of Activities, The Dinosaur Park, Manor Wildlife Park, Great Wedlock Deer Park and Carew Castle. Two surveys have been launched as part of the project. The Employer Travel Survey is for tourism and hospitality businesses in Tenby and the surrounding area that have faced staffing challenges due to transport issues. The Employee Travel Survey is for anyone who currently works in Tenby or has turned down work there because of travel difficulties. It is also open to jobseekers who have considered seasonal roles in the town, but found transport to be a barrier. Employers are encouraged to share the employee survey with their staff. Both surveys take less than 10 minutes to complete and include the option of a short follow-up conversation with the research team. All personal data will be treated confidentially and deleted by 31 March 2026. The Employer Travel Survey is available bilingually here . The Employee Travel Survey is available here .

Pembrokeshire: Summer programme at Oriel y Parc, St Davids
The National Park Discovery Centre in St Davids has crafted an agenda inspired by the local landscape. The focus is on imagination, play, and hands-on discovery, with artist-led workshops, seaside crafts, and seasonal trails for visitors of all ages. With the school holidays in full swing, children aged five and above can take part in Make and Take workshops every Wednesday. These include cyanotype printing and gel plate monoprinting with Kate Evans, coastal weaving with Hannah Rounding, and drawing and mark-making with Kate Freeman. The sessions are inspired by Pembrokeshire's natural world and the current exhibition, Môrwelion/The Sea Horizon by Garry Fabian Miller. Further details and a full schedule can be found on the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority's website. Craft lovers will have the courtyard at Oriel y Parc to explore, which will feature craft stalls and local produce at the Handmade Craft Fairs every Tuesday until August 26, as well as the Summer Craft Market on August 9. Families looking to dive into stories of the sea will find much to enjoy on August 27 and 28, when Oriel y Parc will host a special programme inspired by Pembrokeshire's seabirds and coastal wildlife. Zoologist and author Nicola Davies, along with philosopher Dr Beth Mackintosh, will lead a creative session, giving children the chance to craft a whale zigzag book and a listening scroll. The following day, RSPB site manager Greg Morgan will share insights on the secret lives of Manx shearwaters. This will be followed by storytelling with artist Bron Jones, who will bring the eerie calls of the shearwaters to life with her tale, Phantoms of the Sea. Beyond its summer programme, Oriel y Parc: National Park Discovery Centre features regularly changing exhibitions, a gift shop, and a café serving creative dishes. The centre is also an ideal starting point for those wishing to explore the National Park, with staff on hand to offer guidance for discovering the surrounding coast and countryside.

Laura Hamilton hits back at cruel troll who said she was 'too old' to wear bikinis as she shares a glimpse from her lavish holiday
Laura Hamilton has hit back at a cruel troll who said she was 'too old' to wear bikinis as she shared a glimpse from her lavish holiday. The A Place In The Sun star, 43, has been enjoying a family holiday at Forte Village resort in South Sardinia. Joined by her children Rocco, 11, and Tahlia, 10 - who she shares with ex-husband Alex Goward - Laura has shared an array of gorgeous snaps as she soaked up the Italian sun. However, the blonde beauty was forced to hit back at a comment from one follower who cruelly said she was too old to wear a bikini. In a clip shared to Instagram, Laura was sat poolside as she flaunted her incredible figure in a blue and white swimsuit. She lounged on a day bed with her daughter as they waved while the camera panned out. In a caption, Laura made a poignant jibe at the troll as she penned: 'Who decides when we're 'too old' for anything? 'I recently read a comment saying I was too old to wear a bikini… and it honestly made me stop and think for a second. 'But then I reminded myself, life's way too short to worry about what other people think. 'Today I'm wearing a swimsuit, not because of the comment I read but because I wanted to and I feel comfortable in it!' 'We all have days when we feel self-conscious, but we deserve to enjoy the sunshine, the beach, the pool, whatever makes us happy, no matter our age and whether we choose to wear a swimsuit or a bikini!! 'Live your life and feel good in your own skin' Fans flocked to comments on her post as many were shocked by the troll's unkind remarks. Comments included: 'You keep going and you look amazing. While you've got it flaunt it'; 'Today I'm wearing a swimsuit, not because of the comment I read but because I wanted to and I feel comfortable in it,' she penned 'Absolutely not! Bikinis don't come with age restrictions—just confidence requirements! The only age limit is the age you stop caring what other people think'; 'People that say negative comments are just jealous! Do whatever makes you feel happy'; 'Wow, glad you didn't listen, some people should keep their comments to themselves. We are all different and we should do and wear what makes us happy.' Earlier this year, Laura revealed that she went on a date with Shaggy - and he made her pay. Laura, who split from husband Alex Goward, 44, in 2022 after a decade of marriage, shared details about her dating life in a new interview on Friday. Speaking exclusively to DailyMail Laura confirmed that she was still single and having fun as she recalled a surprise date from over 20 years ago. Recounting meeting up with Shaggy, she explained: 'I met him for coffee and I had to pay for it. It was at Heathrow airport. 'I'd been working with him, and he said, 'I really want to meet up with you and talk about work opportunities.'' As she soaked up the sun, the blonde beauty hit back at a comment from a follower who said she was too old to wear a bikini Confirming that he made up a song and sang it to her, she continued: 'God, that was over 20 years ago. I'm not sure he'd recognise me now.' Adding of her dating life now, Laura said: 'I'm busy working and dating and having fun, and I prefer to find people naturally rather than being on dating apps. 'I like to go out and meet people who have common interests. I made a decision going forward that I want to keep that aspect of my life private. 'I think it's really important that if I'm dating people - and I have been dating people - if they're not in the public eye, then they have a right to privacy. 'Just because I'm in the public eye – you never know what their job is, and they might need privacy for security reasons, and so I'm always mindful of that.' Laura shares two children Rocco, 12, and Tahlia, 10, with her ex-husband Alex, they split after 13 years together. In a statement at the time, she wrote: 'This isn't something I ever thought I'd be saying but, after 13 years of being together Alex and I have separated. 'Our children are and always will be our number one priority and we would respect privacy for our family at this time.' She has been a presenter on A Place in the Sun since 2012 and regularly posts pictures from her sun drenched holidays and filming trips on Instagram. Laura also explained that her time on the Channel 4 show has seen her through so many life changes, notably her engagement, the births of her children and her divorce. The former Dancing On Ice star described feeling like she had 'failed' amid their separation, which saw Laura move out of the couple's Surrey family home. She said: 'We are co-parenting, and it works. But even that, you know, I kind of felt like I had failed.'
