Northern Ireland’s sailing community are being invited to apply to join new roles among the various sub-committees of the board of RYA Northern Ireland.
The initiative follows the recent launch of RYANI’s strategic plan, Navigating the Future, which aims to broaden sailing, boating and watersport’s appeal in the region to a wider rage of audiences.
RYANI is encouraging all to see how they can contribute to its growth, whether that’s in performance, finance, cruising, the environment and more.
Board chair Susan McKnight says: “The sub-committees will be our eyes and ears on the ground and having the right people, who are passionate about the sport of sailing and boating, will be vital for the sport to develop and be successful in the future.
“If contributing to the development of the sport interests you, please get in touch. Most people have more to offer than they realise, and we do not want people to be put off by thinking these committees are for the elite few or that you must have been involved for years and years to contribute. We look forward to speaking to you.”
With one of its strategic aims being focused on improving diversity, RYANI says it is keen to hear from people of all backgrounds and communities — and especially women as it works towards gender parity. See the application form HERE.
