The Ramblers' Association is Britain's biggest organisation working for walkers, a registered charity with 139,000 members across England, Scotland and Wales. They have been looking after Britain's footpaths and defending its beautiful countryside for more than 65 years by: - protecting Britain's unique network of public paths -- all too often, they are illegally blocked, obstructed and overgrown. They work with local authorities to make them a pleasure to walk on.
- providing information to help you plan your walk and enjoy it in safety and comfort.
- increasing access for walkers – their work is helping to establish statutory rights of access to the countryside.
- safeguarding the countryside from unsightly and polluting developments so that walkers can enjoy its tranquillity and beauty.
- educating the public about their rights and responsibilities and the health and environmental benefits of walking so that everyone can enjoy the wonderful heritage.
Ramblers have about 450 Groups across Great Britain, organised into around 50 Areas. The governing body of the Association is its General Council which consists mainly of delegates appointed by Areas. They elect an Executive Committee which establishes policy and uses funds in pursuit of the association's objectives. There are also Councils for Scotland and Wales, and offices in London, Cardiff, Wrexham and Kinross. The Ramblers' Association is not affiliated to any political party and is required by its constitution to be non-sectarian. The Association is a democratic, voluntary organisation, registered as a charity (no. 1093577) and as a company limited by guarantee (registered in England and Wales, no. 4458492).
