Just received this from the organiser of the New Chew:

"Its with regret that I have to cancel the New Chew 2019 event as I don't have Natural England's permission to proceed. NE need 28 working days to look at the map and agree with land owners what the land owners have already agreed. That is to look on screen at the control points that you've all signed up to run to in 3.5 - 4.5 hours. They did have the time in previous years and would have time this year if we paid them, but not enough time if we don't. As we don't want to set a precedent for the FRA and other clubs we decided not to concede to the extortion. The organisation move the goal posts every year and in each of the last 3 I've managed to hit the net. Unfortunately, not this time. "

Not good news.
