The Ramblers have launched a new UK‑wide campaign, Access Denied, highlighting years of underinvestment and neglect that have left thousands of local paths missing, blocked, or unusable. The campaign calls on governments to protect and expand path networks so that everyone can enjoy safe, easy access to nature close to home.

The Ramblers’ research shows that access to nature remains deeply unequal, with many communities lacking nearby, usable routes.
