Volunteer Support Programme 

Volunteers are an essential and invaluable asset within clubs.  Without volunteers, many clubs would struggle to keep going or even cease to exist.  The RYA is committed to supporting your clubs, associations and centres by providing good quality volunteering experiences in the hope that those volunteering within sailing/boating do so within a positive and supportive environment.  

RYA Volunteering

The overall purpose is to support the continuation, growth & success of sailing/boating at all levels.  The aim is to ensure that sufficient volunteers engage positively in RYA and affiliated club activities now and in the future.

RYA Volunteering supports clubs by developing a range of useful resources, guidance and training that address the key areas of concern with regard to volunteers eg How to Recruit, Retain, Reward and Recognise.
