SAVE OUR WOODLAND WALKS!
Rally and Ramble 8th October 12 noon, Friston Forest- 
The proposed sale of publicly owned forests has not gone
away! The government is still hoping a panel of experts will help it find a way
to make the sell off acceptable, even though past sales have resulted in the
public losing the ability to enjoy these woods.
 
Action for Access and The Ramblers will be co-organising a rally and ramble on the issue of Forestry sales on Saturday 8th October meeting at 12 noon at thesouth end of the main car park in Friston
Forest, at TV518996. 

 
Buses 12 (between Brighton and Eastbourne) and the Cuckmere
Ramblerbus (between Berwick station and Seaford) pass within 150 metres.  From London Victoria get the 9.47 train to
Eastbourne and then a 12 bus leaving at 11.27. From Brighton get a 10.40 number
12 bus from Churchill Square.  From Lewes
get the 10.58 train to Seaford and change to the 12 bus.
 
Speakersfrom these groups & Keep our Forests Public will give examples of what has happened to Sussex
woods that have already been sold off and will explain what will happen next
with the campaign.
 
The rally* will be followed by a five mile walk through
Friston Forest, which should be putting on a great show of autumn tints.   This
is not the same walk as we did last time!   Bring picnic & all you'll need for the walk as usual.

(* The speakers have been asked to keep it snappy and informative, you won't be standing around for an hour itching to get walking!)
