New from our Principal Investigator @gsoh31... What can Labour learn from from previous attempts to improve access to the land and encourage people to get outside? Lots of suggestions and recommendations in this long @HistoryPolicy piece: https://t.co/XjVElAO6JO

To round off our week of showcasing the project booklets from our @ahrcpress funded research, here's the link to a piece about all 5 booklets - exploring themes of citizenship, mapping, work, health & accessibility. We hope you enjoy reading them!

How have changing conceptions of health & disease intersected with histories of #RightsOfWay & access to rural places? @dr_hick explores how ‘the countryside’ with its fresh air has often been seen as one key to healthy living in our Healthy Ways booklet

[In All Our Footsteps @AllFootsteps]

How have the entangled histories of technologies & path infrastructure intersected with histories of the accessibility of #RightsOfWay for disabled people? @DrAFlint explores these themes in our Accessible Ways booklet

[In All Our Footsteps @AllFootsteps]

There is considerable (& often invisible) work involved in enabling people to use #RightsOfWay both on the ground & behind the scenes. @Draflint & Tom Breen explore the histories and role of this labour, in our Working on Paths booklet

Mapping our #RightsOfWay is vitally important in order for rights to be both protected & managed into the future, but how has this been approached in policy & practice? Read case studies & recommendations in our Mapping Rights of Way booklet by Tom Breen

How might the history of #RightsOfWay act as one portal through which we can understand different ideas about citizenship in the recent past? Check out our project booklet on Citizenship written by @gsoh31 which explores this theme

We've got a **new blog** out today on our website: today, Michèle Sedgwick considers the ways in which access to rights of way gets blocked off in our own minds, and how to break open those constraints. You can read it, free and Open Access, here: https://t.co/nwegJPxbxp

[Dr Abbi Flint @DrAFlint]

Interested in the history, mapping & experiences of #RightsOfWay in Britain? Then join us for a celebration event for @allfootsteps on 10 Sept, where we'll be joined by an expert panel to launch a series of booklets on our research themes. Book here: https://t.co/BU5c02MpIU

[In All Our Footsteps @AllFootsteps]

On Tuesday 10 September we're holding a celebratory event to mark the publication of five popular booklets on Rights of Way, access rights and movement... It's at Conway Hall in London, and you can sign up here. Take a look! https://t.co/dkcOXjHYg7

[In All Our Footsteps @AllFootsteps]

For the latest in our New Writing series, @kerriandrewsuk considers how a Right to Roam can make us all take responsibility for the landscape. It's here: https://t.co/f4YKIUvOjN

We've got some great new writing for you to start the week! This time: two very revealing Pembrokeshire access cases from the early twentieth century with some very modern aspects... New from @trefeca: https://t.co/VKE4Co3JL5

[Jack Cornish @cornish_jack]

I wrote for @AllFootsteps about the forces of change and disruption impacting our paths, including perhaps the greatest of all, the climate emergency.

[In All Our Footsteps @AllFootsteps]

There's a new blog on our @ahrcpress-funded project website today! We recently spoke to @cornish_jack from @RamblersGB about how paths are forgotten and then found again, and this is some of what was said... https://t.co/hiciZv9KUC

[In All Our Footsteps @AllFootsteps]

This should very likely be read in tandem with the @NEF/ @RamblersGB report from last year about just how skewed and uneven access to nature and the outdoors really is (2/2). https://t.co/Lp4a4hu4nz

[In All Our Footsteps @AllFootsteps]

Very interesting new report from the University of Exeter and others, detailing the extent of health benefits accruing to recreation in the natural world... We'll all have our different views of this, but it's definitely thought-provoking... (1/2) https://t.co/69cQnQnsMs
