Urban Exploration Law Reform
Urban exploration is the exploration of man-made structures, usually abandoned ruins or not usually seen components of the man-made environment.
Photography and historical interest/documentation are heavily featured in the hobby and, although it may be seen as trespassing onto private property, this is not always the case and is of innocent intention.
The nature of this activity presents various risks of arrest and punishment at task payers expense for a hobby of interest.
The unspoken rule of urban exploring is "take nothing but photographs, leave nothing but footprints".
What we ask as a British society of urban explorers is that the trespass laws are reformed to be more suitable for those who choose the hobby and can prove beyond reasonable doubt of the law that there intention is that of urban exploration and not of intentional criminal actions.
