    GAGB has been negotiating with the National Trust Headquarters over the last few months following an approach from one of their people in the South East. We have made some progress and they have agreed to allow Geocaching to continue on their property for the foreseeable future. They would like cachers to follow GAGB guidelines.

    We requested a national agreement but they have decided to continue to monitor Geocaching to gain experience of it and consider it's impact on their land for the moment. Therefore cachers should request placement permission with the relevant local NT warden. GAGB will remain in contact with NT HQ and therefore requests that any issues with NT cache placement are reported to the committee.

    Discussions with NT have been positive throughout and GAGB hopes that cachers will observe the guidelines to ensure that this relationship can be enhanced in the future.
