02 Activities

What the charity does

The CWA engages with user groups and those responsible for day-to-day maintenance to identify possible improvements to the Cotswold Way. We ensure the relevant responsible bodies carry out core maintenance of the trails. We commission work to implement these improvements, supporting, wherever possible, local volunteer organisations in carrying out the work with expenses and materials.
