Welcome to Derby & South Derbyshire Ramblers |
|
The Ramblers’ Association (RA) is dedicated to
protecting footpaths and other places to which the public has a right
of way or access on foot, defending the beauty of the countryside and
promoting walking for all.
The RA in the UK (England, Scotland, and Wales) has more than 140,000 members in 54 Areas and over 450 local groups.
Derby & South Derbyshire are one of the groups within the Derbyshire Area.
The Derbyshire Area |
|
of the RA covers most of Derbyshire, including
some of the Peak District National Park. Derbyshire Area has more than
1700 members in four local groups. They are are Amber Valley, Derbyshire Dales, Derby & South Derbyshire and Erewash.
In addition the Derbyshire Family Rambling Group caters for those with children; the Notts & Derby Walking Group caters for people in their 20s and 30s throughout the Derbyshire and Nottingham.
Campaigning work: The Association works tirelessly defending
and promoting access for walkers and was at the forefront of the
implementation of The Countryside and Rights of Way (CRoW) Act. The
next great cause is for coastal access: the right to walk along
beaches, clifftops and foreshore.
