Finding lost ways

The following is from Ramblers HQ, who want as many lost paths as possible to be found and put back on the map before it is too late.  While we all have nothing better to do than make excuses for not doing those horrible jobs around the house and garden, then taking part in this project could be an excellent and fulfilling thing to do.

———————————————————————-

Our paths are one of our most precious assets, hidden in plain sight, and often taken for granted. They allow everyone to enjoy the countryside, both on our doorstep and across Britain’s iconic landscapes.

But an estimated 10,000 miles of paths across England and Wales are at risk of being lost forever, unless we come together to save them.

Join a growing movement of people using the Don’t Lose Your Way mapping tool. Compare current and historic maps of England and Wales to uncover lost paths and hidden ways, building on the excellent work of Ramblers volunteers over the years.

We need thousands of people from across England and Wales to come together to uncover and save generations of lost paths and hidden ways before its too late.

If you have any questions about the campaign or the system, then please check out our FAQs available at www.ramblers.org.uk/dontloseyourway. If you can’t find your answer here, then please do get in touch at DLYW@ramblers.zendesk.org.uk.

Together we can help save thousands of miles of paths for future generations.

Many thanks,
