TREASURE TRAILS CODE OF CONDUCT

Treasure Trails are ideally suited for everyone to re-discover what's around them in a fun and responsible way.

While exploring your local area, ensure you follow social distancing rules at all times. Be prepared to skip a Clue if social distancing is not possible.

If planning a Trail with people outside your household group, make sure you are still following the latest guidelines for England, Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland on how many other people you can meet up with outdoors.

Make sure not to travel to a trail walk if it is not in your immediate local area.

Avoid touching any hard surfaces such as plaques, signs or information boards that Clues may be set on, or gates, walls or benches.

Don't linger for too long – if you need to, take a photo of a plaque or sign and move to a quieter area, or solve the Clue at home. 

Respect others – remember that there are many vulnerable people who still need to self-isolate.  While walking, please keep a safe distance from residential homes, schools and other premises.
