The Dean Trail Volunteers (DTV) have a new committee and are working closely with Forestry England to get a new agreement in place so that we can develop and maintain the mountain bike trails.

In the meantime, we are getting on with a few things such as doing a tool audit, mapping and inspecting the trails to work out the priorities, linking up with other organisations to support Trash Free Trails and supporting Forestry England with digs on Wednesday mornings focussing on safety priorities.

The newly elected committee team members are:

Chair - Ruth Hallett

Deputy Chair - Lee Hunwick

Interim Secretary - Helen Matravers

Treasurer - Helen Matravers

Trail Building Officer - Alan Grist

Health and Safety Officer - David Windybank

Fundraising Officer - Rob Yates

Communications and Marketing Officer - Richard Hallett

Non-Executives - Alan Powell, Ian Jenkins, Ian Officer and Phil Thompson

If anyone is highly organised and good at typing minutes and can offer some spare time we would love to hear from you, as we are looking for a Secretary.

There will be a new website going live soon and more information on the Facebook page with dates of digs and other activities, so watch this space.

Thank you for your continued support
