Chairperson – Jean Aellen
Jean, acts as a figurehead for the Group, keeping the wheels of the committee oiled and moving. Role is to:
· Guide the running and development of the group.
· Keep members in touch with Group news through our programme, email newsletter and the website.

Thinking of standing for Chair?
A good Chair is:
· Committed to the success of the Group, and the charitable aims of The Ramblers.
· Able to motivate fellow committee members, and encourage discussion in meetings.
· Well-organised and reliable.
You can get support from other committee members, or from Chairs of other Groups, and staff at The Ramblers Central Office may be able to point you in the direction of resources to help chair meetings effectively.
