Countryside Advice Service

Open Country can provide you and your organisation with information about a variety of access issues. Our Countryside Advice Service can include training, access audits, after dinner speaking and general advice, ranging from rights of way to supplying contacts for specific queries.

 

We carry out access audits on existing pathways to check that they meet nationally recognised Fieldfare Trust standards for wheelchair users and can put together a report highlighting areas that need extra work to meet these standards. We also give advice before work on constructing an accessible pathway begins. We have comprehensive knowledge through our own training and extensive experience that we can draw on to make this a highly valuable service.
