Two women were recently issued with a £200 fine by Derbyshire police for driving five miles to a local reservoir for a walk. While the fine has since been rescinded, the case has prompted questions over why people are travelling to access nature, perhaps taking COVID-19 with them, under the current lockdown. Fields in Trust, a green space charity, has noted that 2.69 million people in the UK live further than a ten-minute walk from a park or green space. This distance is considered a threshold for how far people will travel by foot. Having to walk for more than ten minutes will discourage people from using a park, as will a park size of less than two hectares – considered an appropriate size needed to accommodate a community of 1,000 people.
