The book begins with linear walks from central Leeds (Woodhouse Moor) to Harewood, and central Bradford (Lister Park) to Cross Flatts, then circular walks taking in Stainburn and Lower Wharfedale, Otley and The Chevin, the Washburn Valley, Addingham High Moor and Nessfield, Bingley St Ives and Harden Moor, Haworth and the Wolf Stones, Sutton-in-Craven and Newsholme Dean, Kildwick and Skipton Moor, Cononley and Lothersdale, Ripley and Swarcliffe, Dacre Banks and Brimham Rocks, Studley Park and Markenfield Hall, Mytholmroyd and Churn Milk Joan, Midgehole and Jumble Hole, Marsden and West Nab, Holmfirth and Ramsden Clough, Denby Dale and Cannon Hall, Penistone and Hartcliff Hill. All the walks include some rarely visited West Riding “gems” and follow paths we need to keep well used. The book is available for free because it is no longer selling, and it makes much more sense to distribute it to members than have it gathering dust before it is eventually pulped.

Let's hope the weather is drier than last year! MEMBERSHIP QUESTIONNAIRE Please, EVERYONE (who has email), complete this questionnaire. If the questionnaire has a high completion rate, it will: *Provide accurate information on the age distribution of each Group and the Area as a whole (there are already powerful clues suggesting that the average age is high); *Provide some answers to why membership has steadily declined over the last dozen years; *Enable membership trends in the next few years to be forecast with some confidence; *Help Area and Groups to decide on appropriate programmes and activities to stem and reverse the continuing decline in membership numbers. The most important question is your age. It is appreciated that some members might have a sensitivity to divulging it, but the response to the questionnaire is by email and although there is a remote chance of an email address being linked with a person's name, it is most unlikely. In any case, we guarantee confidentiality. THE QUESTIONS 1. What is your age? Please assign it to one of the following categories: 15-19 20-24 25-29 30-34 34-39 40-44 45-49 50-54 55-59 60-64 65-69 70-74 75-79 80-84 85-89 90-94 95-99 100+ 2. Male or Female ….... (n.b. We need this because there is a gender factor in expectation of life) 3. Ramblers' Group …......... (so that each Group can be given details of its age distribution) 4. Approximately how long have you been a member of the Ramblers? ….... 5. Do you intend to remain a member of the Ramblers for the foreseeable future? Yes/No ….. Please email your answers (“Questionnaire” as Subject) to Keith Wadd at [email protected] and Mike Church at [email protected] ( to both of us so that we can easily check the figures). All you need to do is email e.g.: 55-59 F Sometown Group 21 years Yes If there are two members in the same household, they can either use the same email or send separate ones. Many thanks for doing it. Postal Responses: members who would like to answer the questionnaire by post, please send your answers to Keith Wadd, 25 Rossett Beck, Harrogate HG2 9NT WEST RIDING AREA ANNUAL REPORT 2017 CHAIRMAN'S REPORT As an Area we have had a good year with some ups and downs. On the Upside All Groups are now entering their walks on the national website and we can now produce a feed to our website and produce the programme of walks directly from the national website. I would like to thank Peter Sweeney and Stephen Noble for the work they have done and continue to do on this. Stephen Noble has taken over from Dave Pannell as webmaster, and has also taken over as our Area Publicity & Publications Officer. Our Footpath Committee continues to be a good forum for Group Footpath Secretaries to meet and discuss common problems and formulate Area policy regarding footpath work. It is good to hear that many councils within our area are looking for volunteers to work on footpath maintenance, something that was not common in the past. Our small but efficient Countryside Committee under Mike Willison has been this year working on the Local Plans and HS2, whilst also looking at planning applications. The Social & Rambles Committee under Diane Davies produced an excellent programme of walks, coach rambles, and walking holidays. Thank you Diane and your team. Publicity & Publications Committee now has a new Chairman, Stephen Noble. They have met twice this year. Unfortunately we only attended one show this year (Honley) due to age and mobility. The Keighley Group attended the Keighley Show. We need some younger members to come forward to help with shows; it's a good day out and an opportunity to spread the word about the Ramblers and what we stand for and do. On the Downside Our major problem this year as in previous years is loss of members. Over the year 315 new members joined us, 40 lapsed members rejoined but 421 members left us, reducing our membership by 66 giving a membership as at 30th September of 3,111. This is a national problem and the Board of Trustees is working to understand why members join and why members leave us. Martin Bennett who stood down as Chairman of the Footpath committee and we are awaiting someone to take the Chair. As I write now, we still have a vacancy. Keith Wadd who stood down after many years as editor of the West Riding Rambler, his last edition, the 150th coming out in July. I am pleased to announce that following my plea for help in the 151st edition four members have volunteered to form an editorial team under Colin Speakman. Th Lost Paths project is still on hold awaiting guidance and funding from Central Office. As I said last year, there are still two major challenges we face, cuts to Council funding particularly the Rights of Way departments and the relaxing of planning regulations. We need as an Area to work closely with our Rights of Way departments so that we can help them to keep the footpath network clear. Finally, I would like to thank all the Area officers, Group officers and Chairs of our sub-committees for all of the support they have given me over this year. I would also like to thank our team of Group and Area walk leaders without whom we wouldn't have such an excellent and comprehensive walks programme. Mike Church, Area Chairman SECRETARY'S REPORT West Riding Area coordinates all of our activities (both Group and Area activities) so that we all work together for the Ramblers' Association as effectively as our resources permit. Throughout the territory of West Riding Area we are monitoring paths and attempting to deal with the many problems that arise, attempting to protect from major threats the countryside we walk in, and seeking to to make the right to roam work more effectively. Our sub-committees (see separate reports) enable issues to be considered in detail and action to be coordinated, and they bring together representatives from Groups and other RA members who have a particular interest in the committee's area of work. The West Riding Rambler is the journal for our area with news and features of interest to all our members. We also publish the Area Walks Programme with around 660 walks per year, mainly throughout our territory, but with some walks further afield, which provides a rich offering to our members and the wider public. The Area Council of West Riding Area has had four general meetings, and an extra one to deal specifically with motions to be discussed at General Council in April. The meetings take place in Leeds and are attended by the Area's officers, the chair and secretary of the sub-committees, representatives elected by the AGM, and a representative of each of the Groups in West Riding Area. Each Group is entitled to send a representative, and he/she has the opportunity to report on the Group's activities and to raise matters of concern.

    BRADFORD & DISTRICT RABBITS GOLF ASSOCIATION WWW.BDRGA.NET B.D.R.G.A. HANDBOOK 2019 BRADFORD & DISTRICT RABBITS GOLF ASSOCIATION The following is an extract from the MINUTES of the inaugural Meeting of the new ASSOCIATION, which was referred to as THE BRADFORD & DISTRICT RABBITS GOLF ASSOCIATION dated 9th April 1948. “Invitations to attend this Meeting had been sent out by a small Committee of the Bradford Moor Golf Club, and the response was very encouraging. There was an attendance of 28 and eleven Clubs were represented as follows:- South Bradford, Bradford Moor, Otley, Cleckheaton, West Bowling, Woodhall Hills, Queensbury, Thornton, East Bierley, West Bradford and Phoenix Park. The Chair was taken by Sam Chippendale Esq. of Bradford Moor Golf Club and he extended a hearty welcome to all the visitors”. There followed a discussion: “Mr Chippendale was asked whether the Association would have the support of the West Riding Rabbits Golf Association as it was felt that such support and approval would be necessary if both Associations were to prosper. The Chairman said that he had the goodwill of the West Riding Rabbits but assured those present that our Association would be a separate entity from that body and would only be affiliated to it. Thereupon a proposal was made by the Cleckheaton Representative, and seconded by the South Bradford Representative that “The Bradford & District Rabbits Golf Association” be, and is hereby formed, and this was carried without opposition. It was agreed by Members of the Association that an ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING of the Association would be held at a suitable venue on April 30th 1948.” THE BRADFORD & DISTRICT RABBITS GOLF ASSOCIATION CONSTITUTION AND RULES The name of the Association shall be “The Bradford & District Rabbits Golf Association“, affiliated to the Yorkshire Rabbit Golf Association.
