No national body for National Trails 04/04/2013
The South West Coast Path near Crackington Haven
After much delay the Government finally published the conclusions of its review into National Trails at the end of last week. Sadly, it doesn't include any plans to introduce a national body or organisation for National Trails - something our
Campaign for National Trails called on the Government to introduce.
"Clearly we're disappointed with the outcome of the Government's review of National Trails" said Nicky Philpott, Director of Campaigns at the Ramblers. "What we always said was a rushed and ill-thought through review has - perhaps unsurprisingly - resulted in conclusions we don't think will be in the best interests of walkers or National Trails."
