💥NEW💥

We spoke to @Right_2Roam about the history of their campaign and trespassing laws, why the language of trespass is framed against the working class, govt hypocrisy on access rights and why reconnecting with the land is so important 🌄🚶‍♂️

The Government committed to ensuring "our natural environment can be enjoyed, used by and cared for by everyone" in its 25-year Environment Plan. 🍃🥾🌳

There is still much it needs to do to meet this. 👀⌛️
