Present Past
The past is ever present with NTG.  This is feature peeks through the window of NTG's history at any given stage. 

The following BBC cutting, takes a look at how we look after cliff pathways in the strongholding of SW Guernsey.  La Prevote pathway is mentioned (2010). 

Ed's Note:  Particularly love Martin Ozanne's comment:

"It is important to open up the land, but we must also allow nature to survive, together with human beings."

La Prevote pathway will open later this year.  Planning and permissions have been granted and much elbow grease is now muscling into in an overgrown and hard-wearing landscape.  Watch this space for opening date.

Martin Ozanne
President

NTG is a local self-funding charity,  independent of The States of Guernsey, and as such is reliant on membership subscriptions, donations and bequests for the funding of its essential programme of maintenance, repair and renovation of its properties and the conservation and preservation of NTG's land.  NTG also derives an important part of its income from the rental of its properties which can mean that there is limited access to some of its buildings.  However, except for sensitive areas, most NTG lands are freely accessible, providing a valuable opportunity for people to enjoy and appreciate Guernsey’s landscape and coastline.
