Your help is needed

The Ramblers need the help of its members in various activities other than or even together with walking. Here are several ways you can help. We hope you have noticed publicity for the Big Pathwatch. It is a survey throughout England and Wales by which the Ramblers hope to learn more about the condition of public rights of way (Footpaths, Bridleways, Restricted Byways and Byways Open to All Traffic) from a walker’s point of view. It involves people (the general public as well as members) walking all the paths within particular kilometre squares. The aim is to survey at least 30,000 squares throughout the country to be representative. In proportion in Norfolk the sample would need to be 1,100 squares. But over all of Norfolk there are enough squares for 3 or 4 per member, so please help. The only condition for taking part is that you have a mobile phone or have access to the internet, so please contact [email protected]

Publicity for the Ramblers at Shows around the County is already being undertaken this year at Worstead (25th & 26th July), Sandringham Flower Show (29 July), Watton (Wayland 2nd August), Aylsham (31st August), Norfolk Showground (Wild About Norfolk 10th October). If you are likely to go to one of these shows and can spare an hour or two to relieve those already volunteering to staff our display please contact Julian White on 07979 154389 or [email protected]

Julian would also like to learn about other potential publicity venues for next year, or places where people think that they could put up publicity posters.

The Norfolk Ramblers supply regular walks to be published in the various outlets of the Archant press. If you think that you can write up a walk and supply it with a map and a few photographs for the Evening News or EDP, please contact Sue Walker on [email protected]. If you can do the same for the EDP monthly magazine or our own small booklet next year, please contact Peter James on [email protected].

The money we earn from sale of our books is partly spent on assisting the County Council with repair of some bridges or boardwalks. We also hope to do some path clearance work and boardwalk construction ourselves. So if you would like to take part please contact Ian Mitchell on [email protected] or tel: 01603 622539.

Various Groups have donated subscription money towards financing a rights of way specialist to put a case at a public inquiry about getting a public footpath on the Definitive Map of rights of way. There are a number of potential claims for public paths that are yet to be put together. All would require some local knowledge of both past and present users and possible difficulties. Some claims may be assisted by research into documents at both parish level and in the County Record Office.
