2024 Eryri National Park
A great time was had on the recent club holiday to Eryri National Park (previously known as Snowdonia). We enjoyed good weather and many interesting trips to lovely locations such as Penmaenpool, Barmouth, Port Merion, Harlech Castle and the Torrent Walk along Afon Clywedog.
Hard hats were required for our visit to the Llanfair Slate Caverns which inspired Ruth Daniel’s winning entry for the Pathways Fund Exhibition.

2022 Selworthy
Based around the village of Selworthy in the beautiful countryside of the Exmoor National Park, this year’s holiday was greatly enjoyed. Unfortunately, Covid appeared at the holiday centre and one of the party had to return home early. The vaccination seems to have been effective as, thankfully, no one has become seriously ill, although many of the group have now tested positive. As well as the painting trips, the evening events were fun, and quite a few paintings were sold to raise £63 for the Pathways charity.
