I'm convinced.
We have now agreed the details of the basis of transferring Losehill Hall to the Youth Hostels Association. This is a good deal for the National Park.
Blog from the Peak District NP's CEO here about the big society and how great it is they're getting shot of all that land. Totally fails to address the question of how the NGO's are being overwhelmed by the amount of land on offer.QuoteWe have now agreed the details of the basis of transferring Losehill Hall to the Youth Hostels Association.

If anyone wants a lift I'll take our 7 seater Espace. I live in Broomhill and will head down Brocco Bank so could stop at the bus stop just after Hunters Bar roundabout about 7.00pm and other points en route.

Lobbying the Peak Park (individual letters best) to choose the NT over other bidders is advised as this seems to be in the best interest for climbers
Mike Innerdale also made a point of asking "what can the NT do to be more helpful to the climbing community" at the end of his Q&A.
