Donate-a-Gate

Our Donate-a-Gate scheme is carried out by our Path Maintenance Volunteers, at the request of the County Council Rights of Way Officers and is intended improve access for all users.

It is particularly intended however for those who find stiles difficult to cope with. Some are specifically designed to allow access by users of mobility vehicles on some routes. The maintenance of a stile is seen, quite rightly, as a cheaper option to its replacement with a gate, but with your donation we are replacing some stiles.

To acknowledge your help, the gate can carry a short inscription with the name of the donor and the date of the donation. Short memorial inscriptions can also be made.

To donate a gate, please contact the Chiltern Society office on 01494 771250, or use the Donate-a-Gate form, which you view the in this browser window (and load your PDF-viewing software if properly installed). or download to your computer. To view just click on the link above. To download, Windows users: right mouse click. Mac users: Control (ctrl) + click. You will need PDF-viewing software for either option.

Please print out the form, complete it and return it as described. Thank you.
