Providing a forum for its 34
clubs
- around 2000 individual members - promoting their interests,
encouraging recreational walking, an appreciation and respect for the
countryside, working to obtain improved access to the beautiful areas
which abound in the region, building and strengthening links to likeminded
organisations locally, nationally and internationally.
UFRC are building their database of e-mail addresses of individual club members , this allows
our Officers to send information directly . Many walking clubs do
not have regular internal meetings so dissemination of information from
club secretaries is sometimes slow. If you wish to be contacted in this
way send the name, club and e-mail address directly to our Administration
