Cornwall Local Access Forum


The Cornwall Local Access Forum (CLAF) is an independent body. It is set up by Cornwall Council under the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000 (CROW). It advises the Council (and other bodies) on making the countryside more accessible and enjoyable for the public.

Members of the Forum are volunteers and represent a balance between: 

  • users of the rights of access and rights of way

  • owners or occupiers of access land or land crossed by rights of way

  • those with other interests, including: 

    • wildlife conservation

    • cultural heritage

    • tourism

    • sport and recreation

    • health

    • outdoor education

    • local business interests
