Petition Allow freedom to camp on any non domestic land in England.

I wish for a law that allows access to open land for the benefit of ordinary citizens to camp overnight for recreation purposes without fear of prosecution by the land owner. Similar to the freedom to roam act but with the addition to camp out for the night.

More details

I/we believe the enjoyment of the countryside will appeal to our children, tourists and fellow citizens and enhanced by decriminalising open camping on rural land.
