Ulster Federation of Rambling Clubs (UFRC) hosted their Autumn Gathering and AGM at An Creagán, bringing together 40 members from 18 affiliated clubs.

A special thank you to our speakers and workshop hosts.

A key highlight of the event was the election of a new chair, Norman Elliott, and four new officers to the committee, resulting in an overall 38% female representation; an encouraging step towards greater diversity and inclusion within the walking community.

Morning Presentations:

  • Launch of UFRC Action Plan & Good Governance Guide, Bert Rima
  • SportNI Funding Opportunities for Clubs, Conleth Donnelly
  • Walk Week 2025, Jayne Evans
  • Giant Steps Walking Group, Kate McBride
  • Sperrins AONB Management Plan, Ciara Toner
