The research was conducted as part of National Map Reading Week, which starts tomorrow until July 11. Three in ten 45-54 year olds said they 'never' use a physical map, compared to just 16 per cent of Gen Z respondents. "It's why we run National Map Reading Week. We want to encourage people to better understand how good map skills, both paper and digital, can unlock and inspire people to safely discover new places and adventures." To help people brush up on their map reading skills ahead of staycations in Great Britain this summer, Ordnance Survey has set up a National Map Reading Week website: https://getoutside.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/guides/map-reading-week/.
