The webinar demonstrated the strength of the UK and Ireland wide network which strives to share information, foster joined-up thinking and help organisations to work together in a coordinated fashion. Many of the ORN members are taking a leading role in coordinating the phased reopening of the outdoors and developing practical advice on how to do it safely.
This live webinar was available to ORN member organisations and attended by 77 delegates. ORN has kindly made the outworkings available to the wider industry.
