Hannah will be undertaking the
role in the Southern Region supporting the clubs and centres in the area and
helping them develop plans to increase participation. She will also be
communicating advice from the RYA.
Hannah will be working closely
with RYA Regional Development Officer, Andy Hooper.
When she was younger she learnt
how to sail at a small club in Devon, progressing to racing in the Mirror and
then the Laser fleet. Since then she have been coaching sailing and windsurfing
and more recently a number of other outdoor sports in the UK and all over the
world.
Hannah says “I’m really looking
forward to my new role. In the coming weeks I will be visiting all the
clubs and centres that have been working with the RYA, and most importantly
visiting the people there!”
