English Regions Forum
The English Regions Forum (ERF) comprising all English counties, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man, is an advisory body reporting to the RYA Board through the ERF Chair. Its purpose is to enable interaction between members of each RYA Regional Volunteer Team, including Youth Representation, the RYA Chair, Chief Executive, senior development and performance staff and contractors and provides the regions with the opportunity to support, and learn from, each other. The management of the ERF is the responsibility of the English Regional Chairs. Regional Teams will have direct access, through the ERF Chair, to the RYA Chair and Chief Executive to raise issues of concern.
